Chasing thunderstorms, opportunities to dance in the rain, Walking barefoot through grass, screaming into the mountains, chasing sunsets and listening to music at full volume with the windows down while traveling through country roads. Taking unnecessary road trips to restaurants for the sake of a good ass meal, talking to humans about life and what scares them, and brings them peace. Riding roller coasters multiple times in a row just because you can.An anxious human focused on working with other anxious humans, to highlight beautiful relationship dynamics, stories and journeys through art. Utilizing tools and techniques traditionally not found within the industry to bend and reshape the views around us.
I’m a Midwest native, born and raised in Northern Illinois. I live a nomadic life and travel whenever I can. I find joy in art, music, deep conversations, animals, and slow living. I believe in minimalism, mindful moments, and genuine connections. A cameraa, journal or my cats are always within arm’s reach for inspiration. I love discovering local coffee shops in every city, and I savor the silence of quiet mornings. Country roads call to me more than highways, and I seek small gatherings over big crowds. I will always celebrate the little things and down to set up a dinner party at any given opportunity. I celebrate humans in all ways [big or small].
