content for brands.

i translate static brand guides into social media content across retail, real estate, tech, wellness and more. from launches and campaigns, to ongoing content, i create flexible templates that keep things consistent without every piece feeling identical.

personal content

I create content for myself and small businesses launching from scratch on social media. My content supports independent & small businesses by sharing branding tips, filming suggestions and personal growth updates.

i create community-centered workshops for creatives & small business owners. by carving out space to play, i help people reconnect with their creative process.

why hands on?

tactile activities help ideas emerge weirder and more honestly.

who's this for?

individuals & and small business owners who haven’t had the chance to play in a while.

what's involved?

small groups, prompts and just enough structure to keep everyone moving. no powerpoint lecture, no critique circle, just people making things next to each other.

what you leave with

a handful of weird little objects, fresh ideas for the actual work and a little more trust in your own first instinct.

interested in joining the next one?

follow me to stay in the loop!
