Summer 2025

I'm proud to say that I've been a part of the Octavia Project Advisory Board for 10 years. As an architect and designer, I find it's often hard to feel like you're being socially impactful - especially in direct ways. But working with the Octavia Project provides a social salve - for this moment and all other moments. It is a place we all wish existed when we were teens - a salve for those feeling disconnected and not quite seen. And now, in this political environment, when many people's rights are being denied, OP is more important than ever. The Octavia Project offers a creative space for nonbinary, trans, and female identifying kids and teens to dream, write, draw, make, and create possible futures and worlds. 

This summer, support from people like you will allow the Octavia Project to run its free summer programs once again. Please join me this year, in donating to this amazing organization. Our goal is to reach $40,000 this year! If you'd like to extend the impact of your donation, and support the long-term facilitation of this program, please select a monthly donation. 

OP gives me hope. Let's hope together.❤️
