I was born at Breitenbush Hot Springs in the Willamette National Forest of Oregon. At age two, my mother and I moved to Encinitas, California. My childhood hinged on making this 1200 mile journey twice a year to see my father, first by car and later by plane, and set me up for a life of travel. After high school, I lived in every major city on the west coast and then spent years in NYC, building an art career and traveling the world. I now live in Willits with my six year old daughter. Willits happens to be equidistant between my two childhood homes and for that reason, feels like a perfect place to have landed.
