My Path to Wellness
When I think of a resolution, it feels like an ending. A resolve to something. But as human beings, are we ever really fully resolved? I feel like I'm always evolving instead. I like to view my wellness as an ever expanding, ever growing, living, breathing thing.

Interplanetary Lovers
For this sci-fi photoshoot, my friends Delaney Keith and Joe Leitess brought these characters to life as The Space Babe and The Cowboy. A real-life couple who are both actors, the casting was easy. Delaney and I had been discussing this idea for the last year or so, mulling it over and letting it grow. Finally this October, we were ready.

The Left-Field Gift Guide Top Story - December 2020
This year, I've promised myself that I won't sludge through the TJ Maxx aisles for bargain candles and yearly planners to give as gifts to my girlfriends, thrown in with a few soaps and lotions from that chaotically hypnotizing beauty aisle. I will not spend endless hours doom scrolling on Amazon to find my dad yet another wallet that he does not need, nor my mom another owl-shaped anything.

Coconut Oil is the Holy Grail
There aren't that many products in existence that you can use for just about anything. Sure, you can use hairspray for your hair, you can use makeup for your face, but could you interchange the two? Nope, unless you count the occasional "I'm out of dry shampoo so let me dust some face powder on my roots," which, let's be honest, doesn't actually work and greases you up even more.

- Second Place in Costume Contest Challenge
A Twin Peaks HalloweenSecond Place in Costume Contest Challenge
This Halloween I wanted my self portrait series to give homage to the one and only teenage troubled queen, Laura Palmer. I got into Twin Peaks about three years ago through a friend, who said I'd love it stylistically. (They were very right.) David Lynch, man. David Lynch. While I haven't seen many of his other works like Mulholland Drive or Blue Velvet (I know), I have recently watched Dune, which I loved, and which also stars the absolute baddie Kyle MacLachlan. But I mostly haven't gotten around to Lynch's other films because I've been so busy watching, and rewatching, Twin Peaks!

A Theory of Oneness
The ghost walks home alone. She does not weep. She does not long. She does not know. The grass has no knowing, the dirt has no feeling. She slips through timespans, floating in and out of a menagerie of memories that once held her consciousness together in some previous dimension. Glazed. Gooey. Moments whose linearity have really no place here. Moments that simultaneously speed up and slow down, fast forward and reverse, a glowing ticker tape reel of memories twinkling like one giant spiral of atoms - projecting a mass that envelops every single last degree that perception can withstand. Engulfment. Sticky primordial ooze.
