Storytelling inspired by beauty and nature
I bring ideas to life for people that care about the greater good. I’m passionate about connecting meaning-making and the arts as well as design that sparks change. My visual storytelling experience spans multiple disciplines, including illustration, painting, graphic design, photography and presentations.
Nature, climate and ecological awareness are sources of inspiration that provide insights to deeper truths. I encourage a respect of the planet and a socially responsible and generative approach to saving her. My projects use aesthetics and optimism, the ideals of beauty, as a strategy to create hope and a positively imagined future.
