Bio
Born and raised in southern California but always dreaming yonder, I moved to Hawaii at the age of 20 where I found vivid inspiration, beautiful friendships, and an appreciation for diversity. Three years later, after I’d soaked up enough sun and finished college, I moved near Portland, Oregon where I spent a very long fall and winter season studying literature, crafting, writing, and playing music amongst the trees. In the spring, I moved about eight hours east to a beautiful community in the little known Wallowa Mountains. Here, I got an apprenticeship on a small organic farm and my life was forever changed. I fell in love with all things that grow from the earth and, in a constant state of epiphany, saw the way life should be for me: simple, creative, and whimsically purposeful. It was here that I decided to fight the man and reject the corporate ladder that I was always told would be my inevitable future. I currently live in the mountains of Colorado where I grow vegetables out of containers, create whenever it feels good, and spend every minute in vast appreciation of the wildlife and flora that give me the illumination for my creativity.
