utterly curious, intentionally playful and unapologetically nonconforming 🙃🌈
Hi! I'm sparks—an artist, experience designer, researcher and multi-passionate human with an insatiable curiosity. I like to experiment.
I design experiences that help humans connect—with themselves, with our planet, with each other—in unexpected and delightful ways. Experiences like absurd house parties that inspire guests to engage in deep conversations with strangers or global ideation sessions with fellow creative activists on how to bring more play into the climate movement.
I get fired up about building strange and enchanted worlds that provoke new perspectives, elicit behavioral shifts and imagine better futures.
