This picture has found its home today on my Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, AND tumblr. So, what better way to complete this social networking circle to put it here, on my website. This week begins many busy weeks to come. Just about a month left of school…where has this first year as a grad student gone?

Multi-tasking while listening to a lecture on Japanese influenced American Pottery at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s American Wing balcony. This week has been rough so I am happy to have warm weather and sun on my side today.

March has flown by, and its finally APRIL. Where is time going? Aside from sleepless nights, busy days, and challenging my brain, I have had the pleasure to get together with good friends, Allie Noel and Amy Abito to compose our very own tumblr–Coast to Coast, a combination of photography and text taking you through our individual journey’s as artists and students.
Although separated by great distances, the three of us want to remain connected through the one thing that brought us together–art. Whether it is photography, design, or the art of writing, we not only want to make an effort to stay in touch with each other’s creative journey’s but share our experiences with family and friends.
Amy is the working girl, while Allie and I are “starving artists,” further defined by Allie as:
Pre-grad school: artist (n.) a person who practices any of the various creative arts, such as a sculptor, novelist, poet, or filmmaker…
Grad school: artist (n.) … +art critic, historian, writer, philosopher, psychologist, gas guzzler, gallery hopper, studio dweller, sandwich maker, and loan lover.
Expect to see some beautiful photos as these are two inspiring and creative ladies who got me through and encouraged me in San Diego. We are all equally excited to stay in touch and share what we see with all of you!
First day of March, already? I’m surprised too.This was a good time to stop and take a look at what I’ve done so far. From Maui to the mainland, 2012 has delivered a good number of highlights. March on.

From prototype to paper product. This past week I completed the Nautilus lamp I designed with inspiration from this Nautilus lamp, by New Zealand designer Rebecca Asquith. This project was an exploration into paper computing, and making switches using an LED , copper tape and a 3Volt battery. Everything else was made out of paper–it’s amazing what you can do with a few simple components. I look forward to making multiple sizes of this and maybe exploring different shapes.
