When it comes to observing carefully, adapting quickly, and communicating effectively, no one does it better than the girl born in Sydney, Australia to parents with impenetrable work ethic. I moved to Boston by the time I was 3 and graduated high school in Dallas; Now that I’ve graduated college and lived in Utah for close to eight years, I understand a variety of cultural landscapes and experiences on an intimate level because I’ve lived it myself.

I love all things art and design because it allows me to transform experiences and emotions into tangible pieces of pure passion and appreciation. This was just as true as a 7 year old incorporating aboriginal dot art into my art class projects as it is now: I still feel the same pride I did at elementary school art showcases as I do when my designs make it to print.

I’m currently obsessed with playing the bass guitar (poorly), weeding my garden, bike rides, topographical maps and stop motion effects. My greatest inspiration comes from the natural world around me, my community, and cultural moments that have lasting impact.

My ultimate hopes and dreams include using my talents to improve the world around me through community building, land stewardship, hard work, and most importantly, having fun.

Thanks for reading all that!

Yours truly, Stephanie Morales
