I am a catalyst, consultant, and designer of art and ecology residency programs. I've been known to work in art and science administration, circular economy, and dark sky preservation. Ethically, my work is dedicated to social innovation, and cultural and environmental health. As a leader in creating and administering programming, I provide services with emphasis on these themes:
- Art Administration - Art + Ecology for land based art residency programs.
- Co-creating wellness experiences for employees to access deep work and mental renewal.
- Circular Economy Strategies involving participatory design methods. i.e. Upcycling, Zero waste, skills inventories.
- Programming- Market-Driven Restoration/ Regeneration programs for companies to partner with raw material producers using community development strategies for long term and sustainable health of the land that produces their product.
My current Covid projects include:
- In Between | Research and Reconnection | Using a 1994 School Bus Conversion | We are using this experience as a research and design residency to look deeply into critical reconnection aka nature deficiency. What might a world look like if it was reconnected to the enchantment of the natural world?
- Design + Research | Pilot Program for mobile "do tank" and design residency focusing on designing for circularity and biological monitoring. For information please visit the FLOAT project page on this website. Expected launch 2022.
- Programming & Residency Manager for PLAYA | Art and Science, an artist residency in the Oregon Outback that offers time and space for artists, designers, scientists and other creative inquiries.
- Co-founder of the Oregon Outback Dark Sky Network, a voluntary network that actively engages and involves individuals in celebration and preservation of one of the the last dark places in the lower 48. For more information about light pollution and keeping the last places dark for astronomy and biological health of flora and fauna, please visit darksky.org.
