I am firstly, happily married to my husband, Jordyn. I have lived in the Arkansas River Valley my entire life. I'm an artist and a local activist. I will be the first generation of my family to successfully pursue higher education. I use the power of my knowledge to design for good in, seemingly, a designer vacuum. I am a self-made queer antifacist, in a red state, in the year 2026.
     Professionally, I have spent my entire working career in customer service, starting at age 16. If I were a Stoic, I would be a legendary figure of patience. I am a family friend that values family and community like no other. The workplace should be inviting to all peoples and free of prejudice. I'm no stranger to descrimination myself. Sara at Clarksville Domino's now knows to fear the EEOC, Ross already seemed familiar with them already. I have lots of experience in bad workplaces, and getting my team to cooperate successfully, despite the situational environment. I also have experience in good, welcoming workplaces. Ask anyone in the front end team at my current workplace what they think of me, and they'll build a crystal staircase. I have an extremely strong work ethic, and in a good work environment, I am empowered to go above and beyond, and really strive for greatness. Additionally, I'm a volunteer. I often act on behalf of ATU YDAR, collecting food drives, tabling at events, and registering voters. I attend protests and bolster movements to testify bills at the State Capitol.
     As an artist, I haven't done too much professionally. I have made advertisements for events a at a game store in Knoxville and made a logo for a House of Representatives candidate. I've also Donated an entire website to SALT, wrote and created their volunteer manual, designed their logo, and made some of their graphics. I've also designed promotional merchandise for Young Democrats of Arkansas' internal elections. I was going to make a shirt for the City of Russellville after they expressed that they wanted to work with me for a future event, but they were fickle and fair-weathered. I quit following up after 2 years of them leading me on. That was not epic City of Russellville; I just wanted to give everyone my designs for free.

I make art. I listen to good music and it influences my art. Seriously, my favorite artist, personally, is Aidan Hughes, who illustrated nearly every KMFDM album cover. If you manage to look him up, you'll see how our art is sometimes stylistically similar. I prefer to illustrate in Illustrator, but I'm proficient in Dreamweaver, Photoshop, InDesign, Animate, Krita, Z Brush, all drawn mediums, traditional and not, linoleum relief cutting, acrylic paint, ink wash, ceramics, watercolor, collage, sewing, carpentry, and package construction. If you want me to use a different medium, I will add it to the list. Sometime I still make art for fun, but usually I include a message, because I feel so uniquely empowered to do so. I prefer bleak and dark compositions, but I am no stranger to variety. For my designs, I draw lots of inspiration from all time, everywhere. My favorite designs accompany musicians' work, and the prevalance of products like Liquid Death, that have similar branding as a shelf product, make me very hopeful for my future.

I was raised as a Baptist Christian in the Bible Belt. I left the cult when I realized I was on the same side of history as Klansmen and Nazis. After I did that, I had to "figure it out," "learn to swim." I am a pluralist, and after much research, I've decided I am agnostic. Man does not have the tools to verify or falsify the existence of a higher power. I lean more atheist, as there is no evidence to support a god, and the scientific theories of universal formation seem very correct. My philosophy is existentialism. I believe in the moral alignment of the self, by the self, with the aid and accountability of your community, in the face of the absurd. Right now I'm tossing around the idea that, "Good is what serves and proliferates *sapience, and evil is of its detriment." I find meaning where others degrade to Nihilism. You are your own locus of morality, no god can speak to command you. If there is one that can, they don't care enough to. I have chosen to align myself with The Seven Tenets of The Satanic Temple. Lucien Greaves sucks, but luckily our religion preaches an individualist, "no masters" doctorine, so it can be understood we don't look to that sick guy. My last congregation didn't look to him anyways. I don't belong to a temple or a congregation at this moment.

I have been an activist since October, 2023. The genocide in Palestine was the first thing I've ever protested. Sadly, it is still one of the causes for which I protest. ↙↙↙ I am antifascist, antiauthoritarian, and for human rights. My activism started out independant, but changed for maximum success and influence. Now I work with YDAR, PCD, S.A.L.T, and directly interact with politicians for good change in Arkansas. I've registered voters, canvased, designed logos and advertisments, painted signs, made websites, collected food drives, given people transportation, and protested, all in an effort for good change. I've seen a bill ammended, my neighbors fed, my coworkers safely home, a court hearing denied, and countless politicians' toes stepped on. We are the change in our community. If everyone would be this active, Arkansas would be beautiful, safe, and certainly well educated. But Arkansas is not those things; An AI data center is being constructed in Johnson County, another is fighting to erect near Little Rock, our president stripped away vital EPA restrictions on businesses, we have the single most unsafe nuclear powerplant in the nation, Arkansas has beans for an economy, and educates its students like they're future Klansmen. This is a difficult place to have a spine, but those of us who choose to, must, for the sakes of our equals. There's lots of work to be done.

I have always had 1-9 cats. 9 was the peak of last year. My husband loves rescuing kitties and finding them loving homes, even if that is his own, temporarily or otherwise. I haven't been much of an animal person ever myself; they tend to be filthy. I do quite like Meep and Tater Tot though. This page is on the internet, so there must be cats!
