We all have a story.

My story is rooted in family, in the decisions my parents made to run a small business that gave them the flexibility to center the job they really cared about–being parents. There were many challenges over the years that have stemmed from these decisions, but my parents knew they didn’t want to let other people have the power to make them compromise on what they knew to be most important to them.

My story is rooted in community, in the moments that pull you out of your own head and connect you to a concrete sense of Now. Now isn’t always a joyful celebration, it requires a willingness to embrace problems as they arrive, but it also keeps us open to surprise and delight and being content.

Investing yourself in Now is a privilege–but it doesn’t have to be.

Through Stickerknee I want to invite clients to take a moment to really think about where they want to be heading, how they can orient themselves in that direction, and what they both are and are not willing to let go of to get there. If possible, I want to use my experiences and skills to help them take control of their story. If I can’t, I want to help them figure out the resources that will.

Value is mutable and resources are not equitably distributed. To that end, pricing and offerings can vary for each project, but a traditional rate sheet is available on request if that structure better fits your needs. Time, on the other hand, is more concrete than it would have you believe and as such all freelance and consultation requests will be thoroughly considered before commitment in order to ensure I am able to provide every client the level of service they deserve. If you have a specific timeline in mind, please make that clear in your initial request.

Primary skill sets I am confident in sharing with clients include, but are not limited to:

• Illustration

• Graphic Design

• Book Curation

• Hand Lettering and Signage

• Branding, logo design, and other elements in defining a business identity

• Public speaking and panel moderation

• Writing

• Narrative Consultation

• Event Planning

• Collaborative storytelling and game systems

Thank you for your consideration in sharing your story with me.
