I was born and raised on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh Nations (Vancouver, Canada), and I studied design at the School of Interactive Arts & Technology→ at Simon Fraser University.

I'd like to give a shoutout to our prof Russell Taylor→, who passed away recently (Aug 2024). He's the reason a lot of us turned out to be any good at design. He also took many of us through his annual field school program→ where we learned how to exist in a city and try to not be weird around famous designers and architects.

I seek to build and enable community in all that I create. I like to zoom between large systems and the tiny, individual stories within, often trying to illustrate connections between the big and the seemingly small. I'm most interested in amplifying oppressed voices and using both art and software design to subvert, to support, to create new nodes of connection.

When I'm not doing that, I'm often making videos, scheming my shared community/art space, finding flat rocks to skip on calm water, attempting surgery on my film camera, or playing piano.
