I'm a marine biologist turned cyanotype artist - I create mixed media + experimental photography processes that capture the nostalgia + beauty of a romanticized time in surfing + ocean exploration - one filled with adventure, new discoveries, and freedom.
A lifelong surfer and longboarder turned shortboarder - I'm building a surf mentorship program + community for women who know surfing is more than a sport. We're reclaiming our space in the lineup with style + grace and connecting to the ocean on a deeper level, honoring surfing as a practice rather than a competition and allowing the water to be our medicine.
More than that I'm here to say: the ocean doesn't need saving, we do. With 10+ years in the marine conservation world, I'm dedicated to rebranding the climate crisis as the human condition crisis. The ocean was here before us and will be here long after us - we need water to survive not the other way around. I'm an advocate for Blue Mind practices - the theory + neuroscience that shows being near water calms our mind + makes us more creative. Allowing our creativity to move through us by using nature as a tool to alchemize self-doubt into self-trust .. that is the healing of our Earth (and us!).
