I notice what’s true.
I help remove what obscures it.
I shape what remains so it can be seen and felt.

Whether that’s a closet, a garden, a journey, a creative voice, or a public story — it’s the same work.

People often find their way to me through a kind of quiet synchronicity — when something feels ready to shift, take shape, or be seen more clearly.

My path into this work has been wide and layered. I began in the contemporary art world — directing galleries, producing fairs, and curating exhibitions — where I learned how small shifts in placement, proportion, and context can completely change how something is experienced. Later, I studied graphic design at Parsons, learning how clarity, hierarchy, and restraint shape understanding and emotional response.

In Montana, my focus moved into living systems. I studied permaculture design and landscape design, transforming the lot next to my home into a pollinator garden and learning firsthand how patient observation, timing, and subtle intervention create resilience and beauty. I’ve since worked with clients on homes, gardens, and personal systems that support daily life rather than complicate it.

I’ve seen this kind of shift most clearly with people who bring themselves into their work. One photographer had been writing beautifully about nature — but from a distance. When I offered a way of writing with him in relationship to the land something shifted. The tone of his work changed — it felt more alive.

Alongside this, travel — especially to Japan — has deepened my sense of rhythm, seasonality, and respect for what already exists. My husband spent his childhood summers there, and we were married in Kyoto in 2007. Over time I’ve developed a deep appreciation for cultures and places that value restraint, craft, and quiet coherence — and I bring that sensibility into everything I do.

Today, my work lives at the intersection of design, organization, landscape, travel, storytelling, and life transitions. I help people shape spaces, plans, stories, and projects that feel supportive, intentional, and aligned — not by adding more, but by noticing what matters, releasing what no longer belongs, and giving what remains the care and clarity it deserves.
