ABOUT

My designer title has evolved over the years from graphic, to visual, to product designer, and sometimes UX designer or illustrator. No matter the hat I'm wearing, I come to each project with a deep curiosity and many perspectives.

When Iā€™m not designing, I am working on my healing practice and exploring music, art, and dance as a form of expression. In this public forum, I venture to leave no part of myself behind. Designer healer. Healer designer. Creative. Artist. Intuitive. Asker of questions...

What is a healer, anyway? A healer is a person who makes contact and changes someone's perspective. As a certified clinical energy medicine practitioner and a current student of NIASZHIIhealing, I am humbled and grateful to sit with and hold space for healing clients and witness their shifts in self awareness and in their own health and well-being.

Whether I am designing or working with a healing client, my mind works in maps and systems. I love to gather information in order to form a picture, find the gaps, ask questions, and then refine and reframe the problem. While I'm learning a map, it becomes fun for me to spot where something might be out of place in a design pattern, or in someone's energy systems. I know how to lead, and I know how to follow.

As a designer, healer, human, and many other things, I offer to bring all parts of myself forward. How many perspectives can you hold?
