Pronouns: she/her
U of R program(s) of study: BFA in Visual Arts
Favourite class taken in the last year: Definitely theatre 100 with Leanne Groeneveld, what a
fun class.
Would love to teach: I would love to teach a class on gouache painting, such an
under-appreciated medium.
Go-to music to listen to while working: I am unable to stick to one genre, so my go-to
playlists are usually a mix of punk, indie, and 80s/90s rap. However, when I really need to lock
in, I listen to video game soundtracks.
If given the chance to master 1 new skill without effort, it would be: Learn any language,
especially sign language.
Noticing these things brings me joy: Bird sounds early in the morning, hushed giggling from
tents when camping, when animals see their reflection for the first time, and the smell of fresh
baked food.
If given the chance to change the world with a snap, I’d change: I would make every person
have empathy and respect for the people around them.
