What, where, why, and how are you currently wandering?
I recently rescued a puppy, which has given me a lot of time to wander on our walks. We explore new areas daily, which allows me to wander in my hometown and discover places I’ve never seen.
I am also Wandering through my creative world, exploring new mediums and seeing what feels right.

A recent success you haven’t let yourself fully celebrate/savor:
I operate by word of mouth, which has led me to many unique opportunities. I’ve gotten to work with amazing brands and people these past two years and am very thankful for the community I’ve found myself a part of.
A warm memory that makes you smile:
Exploring with my dear friends Rachel and Laura through the fossil beds & painted hills in Oregon during the solar eclipse a few years back. We were all roaming freely and enjoying each other's company. That day felt like a dream.
Advice you would give your past self:
No one cares about what you’re doing, so do as you please.
How do you slow down?
I plan a lot so that I am not rushed, feel organized, and find the time to slow down and feel structured.

A recent find:
I came across Marty Balin's art and music book collection at a thrift store in St Augustine and was able to purchase some wonderful books that he once owned. An unexpected yet exciting find.
A time you showed softness in strength:
I couldn’t fully speak for six months in 2020 due to a paralyzed vocal chord. I found softness by learning to heal while keeping my strength up when faced with uncertainty and pain.
What is life asking of me?
To continuously explore.
P.S.
You don’t have to feel obligated to say yes to everything. Learn how to say no and stand your ground.
