A very tiny Katrina, exploring
I am available for freelance projects
︎︎︎get in touch






I grew up in the middle of cornfields in Indiana, constantly entertaining myself by making things and reading. I was organizing before I knew what that meant—I started and published a community newspaper in the second grade and organized a multi-year backyard carnival to raise money for hurricane relief at 10 years old. My most-used words were "I'm so excited." 
Now, I do work as a geographer, artist, designer, photographer, organizer, quilter, and potter based in Lexington, KY, and Oklahoma City, OK. My work is mostly about memory and place, exploring carceral geographies, death, institutional power, identity, collectivism, cultural memory and belonging, and the land. I am usually dancing, reading, or gardening. My most-used words are still "I'm so excited."
