From growing up in the redwood forest with her mother and also working under the tutelage of her father, a noted designer & architect, she integrates the two forces of nature and structure as common themes in her work and design sensibility.
"Our common culture has found its varied and paradoxical links between blind consumption, mass marketing, sexual and political issues, and an indisposable / disposable mentality which greatly impacts the environment. My fascination with these many social and economic contradictions is a response to this phenomenon through objectification, neo-conceptual work and assemblage."
