My First Portland Market!
Huzzah! Look, mah! My first time selling in-person in Portland!
It was ultra special and meaningful for me to start boothing at my own neighborhood’s annual summer fair — the Foster Summer Soirée!
This chapter for me is about focusing on the places + circles I can influence. Coming from Oakland, I believe strongly in grassroots efforts — putting in energy and love to my direct neighborhood and region. When it’s clear the govt isn’t there to support us, we must rely on each other to create the world we want.

Do you love data visualization and making creativity sound super rigid and analytical?
Well, welcome to my brain! 😂
I’m trying to get into the habit of visualizing, documenting, and sharing my process and flow. I’m a kinesthetic and visual learner, and words help me feel structured. Documentation is something I love to do! It takes time but it’s the “show my work” portion of my creative process.
I think most illustrators would show their process via drawings and even fun zine/comics style. Welp! I do charts! And HOW-TO docs! 😂😂😂 Perhaps why my friend Heather has called me “Data Maiden” more times than once!……….
