Design is a connective force. It connects us to our environment, culture, identity, and politics. It can subvert or reaffirm, disrupt or soften, create or deconstruct. It puts us in conversation with the world. At its core, it connects us to each other.
I am driven by a design that pushes us together and towards messy collaboration, generative discourse, and forward action.
Through my work, I seek to challenge dominant power structures, build community networks, and create opportunities for collective liberation. I am excited by participatory and collaborative models of creation, both in and outside of formal design spaces. My commitment to engaged design is deeply rooted in social organizing, histories of direct action and community care, and art as a catalyst for change.
As we struggle towards an uncertain future, I hope that my work can serve to build relationships across time, boundaries, and borders.
