I grew up in the vast, desolate beauty of New Mexico’s desert, where stillness and resilience shaped my perspective. Art became both an escape and a guide, offering clarity and showing me the vibrant, layered life I hoped could be mine. The process of cultivating ways to externalization my imagination has been central to my growth and continues to inspire my work.

Raised on a goat and cattle ranch, I learned early to adapt, solve problems resourcefully, and approach challenges with tenacity. This grounded practicality complements my creative vision, shaped by the desert’s rugged beauty and its layers of color, feeling, history, and meaning.

Rooted in empathy, communication, and care, my work values the relationships that define creative spaces—whether with art, artists, clients, or colleagues. My goal is to manage projects and spaces where art thrives and inspires within a meticulously organized, efficient, and intentional workflow. I balance practicality with vision to craft spaces that connect and uplift.
