nice to
meet you

let's get down to business
(to defeat the huns)

Originally from lush rainforest of Vancouver, Canada, I now live in the high desert of Albuquerque, New Mexico, just off Route 66. An avid flamenco dancer, I’m here because it’s the best place to study flamenco outside of Spain. 

 

All about the art of reinvention, once Covid hit I pivoted from the fashion industry into UX Design. Armed with a background in Visual Design and hand lettering, my experience folded seamlessly into UX. 

 

Previously I worked as a Lead Editorial Stylist at Zulily and Stylist for the size inclusive brand Universal Standard. I studied Visual Design with an emphasis in Image Consulting and later UX Design. 

I am out with lanterns, looking for myself.

I wasn’t always great at reading sheet music, so I started learning to play by ear. Play me a contemporary song on Spotify and I’ll figure it out on the piano in less than five minutes. 

I recently graduated from a UX Design program with CareerFoundry and am celebrating how I learned and grew through the last 15 months! 

Storm from the X-Men, complete with the creepy eye contacts. It came together at midnight the night before in true Halloween fashion. 

Writing poetry, including founding the Secret Poetry Collective with a group of six women, half of whom I’ve never met, across the continent. We write our way to freedom on the first Sunday of every month. 

Black leather jacket. Worth. Every. Penny. 

A fanny pack which got a facelift lately as a “belt bag” . Back in grade four my fanny pack is where I kept my retainer. Now I’ve upgraded to lipstick. 

Born That way

Once a cat lady, always a cat lady

Me and cats go way back. I’m allergic. Worth it. 

 

Giving kittens a home

Back in 2017 I placed a whole litter of kittens into happy homes.

 

Cat mom

I have two kitty babies of my own, Max and Ginger. An introvert and an extrovert. 

One is the reason people love cats. 

The other is the reason people hate cats.

leadership Opportunities

I’m the oldest of five kids so I was forced into given the opportunity to develop leadership from an early age. 

5 of the 5 of us homeschooled at some point. 

4 of the 5 of us have cats. 

4 of the 5 of us work in the arts. 

5 of the 5 of us get along (most days). 

Feel free to drop me a line to say hello, and/or share a book recommendation, and/or give an insider tip for the best place for bubble tea or gluten free pastries, and/or extend an invitation to collab. It’s nice to connect with other humans.
