About Me

Identities are nothing short of a name times a face divided by an attitude at the square root of the observer. Art is a place where I can explore and express the different identities that create me. I am an artist, poet, scientist, athlete, inventor, theorist, student, feminist, naturalist, parent, sister, daughter, friend, and what ever else I decide to be today or in the future. So as I travel this long twisted road through this perceptive reality of my reference frame, least I can do is document it....

Right now I am traveling in Spain with my son Jared, we are living in a small pueblo just off the coasta la Luz...
The whitewashed village is old, and we lucky enough to live in the old town,
a medieval castilla overlooking the valley to the sea 7km away. We are so far south we can see Africa from this mountain top village, and its so hot, you have to have a siesta until 6pm here.
Besides that I am producing art, and working on new technologies to further my research in electronic stimulation
