systems maps
visualizing networks for collective wellbeing
spatial systems mapping
three-dimensional systems maps are a spatial architecture of powerfully relational landscapes. experiencing networks spatially helps us to: see relationships; understand flows of resources; visualize co-creations & impacts; and imagine and plan shared actions toward collective well-being.
we can engage this mapping in co-design processes to see together: power differentials, access to resource, lived experience, whose voices are being heard and engaged, privilege, and agency—in order to support networks to make decisions together that support and build social equity.

empathy stories + honoring portraits
sharing who we are with warmth, respect, and dignity
my current work is built upon a foundation of systemic storytelling. the thread that ran through my prior work was always asking how can we welcome, engage, affirm, and celebrate voices that bring us into shared wholeness? there is a trust, in these explorations, that embracing wholeness is what moves us toward collective healing and well-being.

a community space for hale county.
this book explores the significance of community space in rural alabama. the book is a box of 50 cards: each with a local individual’s portrait on one side and expression on the other. we created: a book of empathy interviews / community group / community process / community space / inclusive programming for the space. this process was a path to explore together ways to co-create safe space for social equity and healing.
our wholeness
honoring our diverse truths, tenderness, power.
this series makes space to welcome people’s vulnerabilities and to support integration. by welcoming and embracing our unique wholeness we create affirming experiences that inspire us to celebrate all of who we are.
