culture & art for wild hearts

I focus on art, music, style, and stories of people in our world. My goal is to contain a space for people to be inspired and find alternative stories. Stories of the love, longing, visceral anger, and bravery that drive people to create.

I am in the process of earning my masters in clinical mental health counseling. Much of what I write is grounded in understanding why people do the things they do. Isn’t that what life is for? To share our stories and our understanding of the world. Art is what defines us. We left our marks on cave walls—prints of our hands, animals we tamed and hunted, vestiges of the world around us. Let’s explore what we leave behind.

The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.
— Henry Miller
