My community and care practice operates under the premise that human connection and presence are active creative mediums. With over three years of facilitating arts programming, my work explores how intentional environments foster emotional safety, agency, and collective resilience. By integrating social-emotional learning with somatic knowledge and visual storytelling, I design restorative spaces, interactive zines, and site-specific activations that invite people of all ages and backgrounds to connect with their environment, honor their humanity, and imagine new possibilities together.
