48 hours of flying


For the last 24 hours and the next 24 hours, I am helping my boyfriend and I move from Savannah to Chicago. With a little help from airline benefits, Chase and I will have moved 18 checked bags! Today I am fresh off the heels of an Arizona Thanksgiving- flying PHX-CLT-SAV-CLT-ORD. Hit a bad weather snag on my 4th and last connection in Charlotte, North Carolina... but with only a slight delay my spirits are high and anticipating a new life in a new city, singing Christmas classics for the next 25 days.

My Final round tomorrow: ORD-CLT-SAV-CLT-ORD, and we're officially moved. Cheers!

Arizona Thanksgiving



Thankful for all the incredible beauty I have seen in people and the places I've been lucky enough to see around the world. It is a life full of love and my life's happiness is wrapped up in it. A Happy Thanksgiving, to all!

Three weeks in to fall trimester...

and I almost feel pro. My artistic vision and ability has matured immensely and I am not sure when it ever happened. Apparently three years of college education and internship experiences greatly nourished that growth... but I now feel apart of a community. I think Chase and I are finding our tribe. While this will grow... we remain the heart of it.

In other thoughts, It's great timing for this somber rain storm.

A Changing of Seasons

My senior year at The Savannah College of Art and Design is off to brisk beginning. After a fantastic experience interning for Ryan Robinson in Chicago, IL- I am more ready than ever to get my hands dirty and have the best year of school ever. The future of this blog will be a vast variety of personal and commissioned work and snippets of inspiration to me.

I think I'm getting pretty good at this.


"I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it -- I own everything about me: my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing, I can love me and be friendly with all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know -- but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me. However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me. I am me, and I am Okay"
