I’m a transdisciplinary artist engaged in social practice and community focused projects, interweaving my lived experiences with collective experiences in areas such as trauma, death, belonging, communication, and ideas of identity. Currently, I’m traversing where self-regulation and co-regulation can co-exist, inwardly and outwardly. Collaborating with research as an artistic medium, I often create interactive works with multi-sensorial mediums, approaching with an intersectional commitment to transparency, awareness, accountability, connection, and care.
Born in Tennessee (on The Farm), I was raised in Ontario and Zimbabwe. I’m a French/Italian/Scottish/Irish/Unknown unsettled settler living on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm, Skwxwú7mesh, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh Nations (Vancouver BC). I hold a BFA from ECUAD, a Professional Photo-Imaging Diploma from Langara College, and have trained as a death doula. I work and volunteer with abuse/violence prevention and post-trauma support organizations. I hold long-standing experience as a musician, commercial photographer, server, facilitator, speaker, and journalist. Through this, I’ve gathered familiarity holding space for, and with, multiple truths which is integral to my praxis.
