I like to call myself an attractivist. Not just because of my striking good looks but because I am committed to activism based in crafting, creating, and taking risks, not just criticism and resistance to how things are. I believe that in order for us to see what else is possible, we need to let go of what is. You can’t just put whipped cream atop of a pile of shit and call it dessert. First you need to get a shovel. I am fascinated by digging in and taking apart concepts, objects, and perspectives to see how they work. In the process I might see another way, or at least find a way to disrupt a dominant view of reality. I live in Berkeley, CA with my partner of nine years, our two cats, and a ridiculous spread of crafting items, feminist theory literature, and strategy board games. My favorite show is Twin Peaks, my favorite color is orange, and I take my cream and sugar with a little bit of coffee.
