born creative, living creative!
I’m a writer, multidisciplinary artist, and creative strategist.
I also design creative systems that help artists stay energized and connected.
I started Like Really Creative and developed The Four Codes of Creative Energy, a framework that helps people build and maintain creative momentum.
Everything I do starts with my art practice that spans writing, visual art, photography, and music.
With more than 12 years of award-winning experience in creative direction and design, I bring together art, strategy, and community design to create lasting spaces where creative energy can multiply and make a difference.

I work with artists to build steady creative momentum by focusing on clarity, structure, and a strong sense of community.
-
With more than ten years of experience in storytelling, design, and cultural programming, I help artists define their identity and articulate their vision.
Together, we refine your creative identity, align your visual and narrative presence, and develop purposeful strategies to share your work.
My approach blends aesthetic intuition, strategic thinking, and deep listening.

I work with artists to create their own visions for gatherings, workshops, and experiences that bring people together and deepen connection.
I founded Like Really Creative to help artists sustain their creative energy and avoid burnout.
It’s a creative platform and community. Through events, coaching, podcasts, writing, and collaborative programs, the platform activates the Four Codes of Creative Energy: Community, Craft, Clarity, and Condition.

The Four Codes of Creative Energy is a creative wellness framework I designed to generate and maintain creative energy without burning out. I developed this framework through six years of trial and error. All Like Really Creative programming and content is filtered through the Four Codes framework.
The Codes are:
Community: connecting with, being supportive of, sharing with, collaborating with, and nurturing fellow creatives
Craft: honing technical creative skills through practice, learning, reading, experimenting, and playing
Clarity: gaining self-awareness, calm, and clearheadedness through meditation, journaling, sitting in silence, or reducing digital media
Condition: taking care of the body to increase energy levels through regular physical movement as well as feeling and releasing emotions

Events are the center of Like Really Creative. They are designed to generate energy, stoke curiosity, and connect creatives in a novel way. I have developed and executed several event series: The Collage Party, MUSE Creative Gatherings, Inspiration Salon, Artist Walking Group, Junk Journal Jam, CHARGED UP Creative Wellness Gatherings, and the Write-On Writing Group.
-
I coordinate, produce, conduct interviews, edit, and publish a monthly podcast called The Like Really Creative Show, hosted on YouTube and major podcast distributors. The show highlights prolific artists and how they stay creative.
I collaborate with artists to created guided meditations for creatives called Creative Clarity.
I use the Like Really Creative social media platform to showcase up-and-coming artists in the local scene.
Fully charged creative energy.
My life’s purpose is to help creatives charge their creative energy so they can always be connected to their true selves and share their work with the world.
