An interdisciplinary educator, designer, and writer who builds clarity out of complexity. My work translates abstract and conceptual material into structured, usable learning, drawing on years of teaching, curriculum and instructional design, and collaborative work in collectives and cooperatives.
I approach design as a relational practice, made with care, and built so people can actually find and realize their own capacities.

Selected work in instructional design, curriculum development, visual communication, and educational writing. These samples emphasize the translation of complex visual and conceptual material into structured, accessible learning experiences for secondary, postsecondary, and adult learners.
