What do you do?
I recently left a job with the Whatcom Council on Aging to focus on being a new mom. I am vice chair of the Ferndale Arts Commission and a board member at Allied Arts of Whatcom County. I like to encourage individual artists and build community through arts related events. I dabble in writing, painting, costume design, community organizing and anything else that strikes my fancy.
Advice/words of wisdom that affected your life you’d like to pass on?
Be compassionate with yourself and assume everyone else is trying their best.
There is this illusion that you have to be hustling all the time to be successful. But its unsustainable. You don't have to be super great at any particular thing. Love yourself anyways. We are all doing our best with what we have from day to day, and it constantly changes.
