VISUAL ARTS
I was gifted my first camera at age 6, and have been creatively observing the world around me, and making work, ever since. I am a photographer by trade, having attended photo school many moons ago, witnessing the transition to digital during my tenure.
I create visual artwork that is rooted in curiosity and photography, undergirded by research, activated by anthropological methods, and comprising multiple forms of storytelling. These forms include mapmaking, oral history collection, sound recordings, sewing, textiles, contextual writing, books, short films, and collective voice. I have shown work nationally an internationally over the past 15 years, and am inspired by the time I spend in national artist residency programs — often in wild spaces.
I am a proud member of Monument Lab’s Re:Generation 2024 cohort, working with an incredible team of artists to transform a train boxcar to shine light on immigrant rail labor.
I served on the leadership board of the Laramie Public Art Coalition from 2022-2024 and it is an honor to be Wyoming Arts Council’s Visual Artist Fellow for 2023.
