Mentorship

I offer one-on-one mentorship for emerging artists developing long-term projects and applying for opportunities such as exhibitions, residencies, grants, and MFA programs.

I am an artist and educator with nearly fifteen years of experience navigating the art world and over six years of experience teaching college photography. My mentorship practice is rooted in generosity, transparency, and a commitment to resisting scarcity, competition, and gatekeeping in the art world. My goal is to help make the art world more accessible and equitable, especially for everyone, espeically early-career artists who may feel a bit lost.

Below is an outline of what you might expect when working with me, but all mentoring is tailored to the individual artist. If the offerings below don’t fit your particular needs, we can work together to figure out what type of mentorship would best suit you.
