About Me
I am an artist and maker of all sorts, based in Portland, Maine. Originally from Bethesda, Maryland, I moved to Maine for college and never looked back. I studied Visual Arts (with a focus on painting and photography) and Art History at Bowdoin College. I spent the past decade working for a variety of Maine-based arts and creative organizations including as Director of PhoPa & Maine Media Workshops + College Galleries and Art Director & Associate Editor of Taproot Magazine. In early 2024 I began a new chapter, combining my creative background with my passion for the natural world, as Marketing & Communciations Director for the Wells Reserve at Laudholm. The Wells Reserve is a national estuarine research reserve in Wells, Maine dedicated to science, education, and conservation and open every day 7am - sunset for public enjoyment. Come on over!
In my spare time, I can be found lingering at one of my favorite local coffee shops or restaurants, exploring the amazing beaches and coastal spots Maine has to offer, taking dance classes, and occasionally working on my own paintings.
