Press • Partnerships • Speaking
Each year I take on a limited number of interviews, collaborations, and speaking engagements when I believe there’s strong alignment.
If you’ve found your way here, you’ve probably already learned a bit about me. Let’s now explore what makes a good partnership.
My work reaches a highly engaged audience of therapists, educators, students, artists, neurodivergent learners, and generally curious people. My visible metrics look something like the following (last updated mid-2026) but the real potential in this community is the engagement and connection behind these numbers

How I approach my work
As a therapist
I’m influenced by attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, & modern relational approaches that see healing as something that happens through connection, meaning-making, and lived experience. I believe in transformation not just symptom management.
As an artist
I’ve learned to lean into mess making. A chaotic creative process that routs through whimsy, experimentation, play, and mess-making, is what it takes to get me to the visuals that help people feel emotionally engaged instead of clinically managed.
As an entrepreneur
My goal is to curate sustainable practices that help me create more while growing a portfolio that remains deeply human in an increasingly automated internet. Unlike many creators in this realm, my telos is authenticity and novelty, rather than trend optimization.
Studio practice
Collaborations that fit
I occasionally collaborate with individuals and organizations for:
Campaigns
Interviews
Speaking events
Workshops
Museum programming
Community creative projects
when there’s strong alignment in values, audience, and creative vision.
I pass on opportunities that feel overly promotional, trend-driven, or disconnected from the values and audiences my work is built around. I am located in Saint Louis, MO and regularly travel to east and west coast US.
If you think there’s alignment, I’d love to hear more about your project.
Topics I can speak about thoughtfully:
Accessible Mental Health Education
Who gets to learn about mental health and self care, and how can we communicate that information in accessible ways?
Learning, Memory, Creative Expression & Neurodivergence
I love exploring the intersection of data retention, creativity, sensory engagement, and accessibility for all minds.
Visual tools in clinical practice
How can we use less-medicalized, evidence based illustrations to increase client engagement, homework completion, retention, and emotional connection.
Creative sustainability for artists
I’ve spent a career developing sustainable practices that support my creative thriving. While no longer coach creative business owners, I love speaking with groups about strategies for sustainable creative entrepreneurship and platform independence.
Community-centered creative projects
I love talking about my the little free art supply library I made in an urban St. Louis neighborhood and how it’s touching my community.
Previous features, collaborations, and recognition
Past collaborations and features have ranged from organizations as large as the Museum of Modern Art and as small as local arts organizations in my neighborhood.
