CURRENT MISSION

To create a greater sense of community through art and farming.

ABOUT ME

I am a deeply caring person. I am independent, creative, and outgoing. I love nature and art.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what makes you feel alive. Don't get hung up on what others are doing. Find other people living the same, in their own way. Be friends.

Interessen

Most of my projects are art related. I work with a local group AmesC.art to promote visual art in Ames. I am also an MFA student at Iowa State University. I work with my own garbage to create installations about the environment. I dabble in music with friends and family. Recently, with the help of my husband, we have started up an organic vegetable farm. The farm also has 70 acres of organic row crop that we tend to. We also just opened a brewery, Alluvial Brewing Company, in Ames, IA.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I recently curated an art show at a gallery in Ames, along with six other local artists. It felt like a concrete step in my dream of building an art community.
