‘Herstory’
When I went to study architecture and fine art at Rhode Island School of Design in 2011, my eyes were opened to how design enlivens and connects people through altering places and systems. I began to learn the art form for making “Wow!” spaces, engaging the community generously and meaningfully. I gravitated towards social mission projects and classes– they demanded an agile architectural approach and pushed the frontier of digital tech and computer-aided manufacturing to make it so. With brilliant architects and artists as my critics and teachers, I took artistic risks that respond holistically to the briefs and made them buildable and practical.
My favorite classes had nonprofit clients seeking to rethink their footprint on the ground. Through working with them, I felt inspired in 2014 to co-found DMATER, a design studio, to investigate what social enterprise clients were struggling to navigate– the mashup web of digital technologies, environments, and culture. Over several years, this investigation took me to Italy, Los Angeles, and Australia to test my process of research-based placemaking in various cultural contexts. In 2018, I relocated my globe trotting design studio to my hometown of Auburn, CA. Now I work with a range of organizations empowering them to play a bigger game, fulfill their potential and build the lifestyle they want for themselves and their community.
