I was born and raised in 70s/80s North Beach, San Francisco. Calabrese, Cajun, Crakowiak.

 

I'm a sometime illustrator and designer, and jv muralist.

 

I'm also a long-distance walker. In 2012 I mapped and walked an 800-mile route from Sonoma to San Diego on Native pathways, commonly known as El Camino Real. I fundraised for the effort and in turn wrote a free, online trail guide for the route. I've also been on Native-led prayer walks including a 2017 relay from San Francisco to Washington DC and walks in Nevada and Minnesota.

​

​Most recently I've worked as an outdoor educator in the Marin Headlands, a backpacking trip leader, and volunteer for Native-led habitat restoration projects. ​
