My work in curation and facilitation is sustained by the belief that art is a living practice of collective agency, healing, and imagination. I create containers where people can move, speak, grieve, and dream together — drawing from influences such as Anna Halprin’s Life/Art Process, Bread and Puppet Theater, El Grupo Yuyachkani in Peru, and the wider field of social practice.

On unceded Abenaki land (Vermont), I have co-hosted grief circles grounded in ritual lament and ecological attunement, co-facilitated a yearly Samhain Ritual at Bread and Puppet Theater, and led psychedelic integration workshops through the Tamalpa Life/Art Process, weaving somatic therapy and expressive arts. I also lead and DJ for community movement practices, and co-founded the region’s only queer ecstatic dance, centering embodiment, connection, and inclusivity. Together these practices tend thresholds — birth, elderhood, and belonging — and open space for re-imagining the village so many of us are longing for.

My facilitation has also carried me into wider contexts — presenting research with the Transart Institute, guiding ecosomatic workshops in New York, and contributing to Weaving Water @ Yarun in Australia, where artists and scientists gathered around the stories and ecologies of water. In higher education, I’ve taught as an adjunct professor of Photography and Performance at PNCA in Portland, where I invited students to explore the intersections of image, embodiment, and social practice. Across these settings, what stays constant is my commitment to mentorship and to artistic inquiry as a shared process of discovery.

My work carries forward ancestral connection, folk traditions, communal ritual, and embodied storytelling while also opening space for contemporary forms of protest, resilience, and transformation. At the heart of it, I see art not as something to be produced, but as a shared practice of belonging— one rooted in reciprocity and imagination, where we can remember our interconnection and tend the ground for resilience and collective healing to take root.
