(she/her)
Art lover, dog enthusiast.

Hello, there.

I graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in Museology and a minor in Women and Gender studies. I have a passion for the arts and social justice movements that are always morphing the art world. I currently work in the education department at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill, NY. I live with my two dogs and have a constant craving for a good cup of coffee.

Here, you will find a selection of my writing, ranging from formal analysis to personal gallery reviews to entries for creative writing competitions.
