CURRENT MISSION

"But if I knew everything, there would be no wonder, because what I believe is far more than I know." Madeline L' Engle

ABOUT ME

A few years ago I moved "out west" to the great state of Texas leaving my incredible family and friends in cajun country. I spent the last year in India doing design work for a social enterprise. I am beginning my master's degree in design at Cologne International School of Design, and am so excited to live in Germany! I love traveling, but often times the people I meet along the way make more of an impact on my life than the place itself

PHILOSOPHY

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never say a common place thing, but Burn, Burn, Burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars."
- Jack Kerouc

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In June of 2013 I left Austin on bicycle with some incredible friends to inspire hope in those battling cancer. 70 days and 4,500 miles later we reached our final destination in Anchorage, Alaska. It was such a difficult and beautiful summer, and I grew in ways I never could have imagined. Getting to see so many parts of North America on a bike as well as encourage those suffering from cancer was a truly wonderful experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am really interested in social justice. I like to talk about design and culture. I love hearing people stories and getting to know people!
