I'm a writer, artist, sustainability strategist, and co-founder based in Midcoast Maine. My work tends to live at the intersection of environmental urgency and creativity.

 

I hold an MA in Nature-Culture-Sustainability Studies from RISD and a BA in Visual Communication from SCAD. My 2024 book, You Had to Be There, published by Lantern Publishing & Media, explores climate grief through personal essay, academic analysis, and visual art. My work has appeared in the Boston Globe and Austin Woman Magazine.

 

I work as a Sustainability and Creative Strategist as well as a co-founder of Low Season, a sustainable lifestyle brand launching summer 2026.
