There’s room in the van!

A smiling woman with blonde hair and freckles. A daisy flower is placed in her hair near her right ear. The photo is animated with a pink background and floral decorations.

The image features the phrase "Hop in!" written in stylish, dark gray script font against a transparent background.

I grew up on mountain road trips in a unicorn-decorated van, tagging along as my parents visited artists and practiced mindfulness in Unitarian retreats. Those beginnings shaped this space, where I share stories and ideas about art, nature, culture, and the beautiful chaos of family life.
