HER ADVICE:
  • Keep evolving - don't be afraid to change
  • Keep learning - hone your craft - even as a professional, one can improve
  • Be prepared to solve problems - creativity is key
  • Believe in yourself - have faith

As per her own advice, "keep evolving - don't be afraid to change," she has recently taken on a new direction in her work, especially as inspired by her interest in Social Practice Art. An example of this practice in action is the collaborative mural project that she just completed in downtown Richmond. The videos below highlight the project and its intentions and outcomes.
