Creative Gratitude
Childhood trauma lead me down a deeply emotional path that only the outdoors had space for. Growing up in Marquette, Michigan I took to the woods and water for safe spaces to question, escape, and understand life. I’m alive and who I am today, because of Marquette. Now I use art therapy to give gratitude back to the spaces that helped me find my way and my why. Because Marquette is my way of giving gratitude back to the places that helped me find my way and my why.

Being Human
The Human Hangover is the aftereffect we feel, simply by being human. Drinking from a well of unprocessed emotions; our days are formed by a mind that responds to the present, based on the past. We experience life through the voices of others- until we live audaciously enough to find our own. Here is what has helped me find my path, instead of perfect it. My failures in being normal, and my successes in being human.
