I grew up in a small town on the edge of the Rocky Mountains on unceded Sinixt, Ktunaxa, Secwepemc, and Syilx territory. Working at the intersection where social and ecological systems meet, I am passionate about continuously imagining a practical utopia that leaves no one behind.
I completed my undergrad in Environmental Science (BSc) at the university of British Columbia in 2021. Concentrating in sustainability science taught me to critically ask what it is that we want to sustain. I developed a deep understanding of how environmental breakdown, rising inequality and mental health crises are symptoms of capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy.
A desire to realize practical and radical responses led me to Landscape Architecture - a space where ecology, community, and creative expression can and must be integrated fluidly.
I believe that design has the potential to get to the root of these systemic issues, especially when it is understood as a process, an activist practice, a relational way of being - with material and social outcomes not being merely static products but living entities that emerge out of the design process itself.
During my MSc thesis work, I developed a methodology for ontological landscape design towards the Pluriverse. The framework was the product of a collaborative and relational process with my neighbours to politicize and activate the under-cared-for courtyard space of our perimeter-block housing in Hannover, Germany.
