About

I'm a visual artist obsessed with optimism. Originally from California, now living in New York. This is a space where I think through and share notes on art, art worlds, transparency, positive psychology, and my process.

Anti-Prom Paper Dolls 😍created at @berkeleyartcenter during my show Holding, 3/22-4/29. 🙏🏾Huge thanks @kimbr @yung_sch0lar and the many art handlers and helpers who installed the show, painted the map, and helped me finish the set of 4 zines totaling over 200 pages ahead of the launch and my travels. Thanks for deinstalling while I was away. From one art handler to another, everything was so organized. <Cue the sun parting the clouds music.>🌤️
