VALUES MANIFESTO

I want to make it clear up front that I support anti-racist movements like Black Lives Matter as well as those that advocate for Trans lives and Non-Binary individuals specifically. I long to see a Free Palestine, and I hope to see justice served for this genocide. I am firmly anti-AI and anti-Chat GPT. I support the abolition of police and ICE, and I think all immigrants belong in the United States. I support gun control as well as access to abortions and free healthcare for all, especially for people with disabilities. I am fully vaccinated and up to date on my COVID boosters, and I support active masking, so be sure to mention your comfort level and I’ll mask accordingly.

AN OPEN LETTER & A PROMISE

Living in the American south, it can be challenging to find vendors and collaborators who openly support marginalized communities. It’s been said that SILENCE = DEATH, so I try to be vocal about my advocacy, if only as a way to let people know what they’re getting when they reach out to me. I want my clients (and potential clients) to know where I stand and to know that they can trust me when they put in an inquiry. My hope is that my business and my person can be a safe space for everyone.

As a member of the LGBTQ & neurodivergent communities, I am very passionate about serving minorities accessibly and equitably. I’m lucky enough to be at a point in my career where I can prioritize reduced rates and sliding scale pricing for those who need it, and I recognize the privilege in that.

Even though I’m not perfect, and I will inevitably make mistakes, I am dedicated to my continuous education. I’m forever a work in progress, but know that I am doing my best, and if there’s any way I can be better, I’m always open to critiques. The least I can do is show up and try to use my voice and my business for good.

The bottom line is this: you are loved. You deserve to be seen and heard and happy. And my hope is that I can be someone you can trust.

If you’re in need of financial assistance or you aren’t sure if sliding scale/reduced rate applies to you, please send me an inquiry email! I operate my business in a way that allows for all kinds of budgets and projects and people, but I also have wide network of local vendor friends, so I’m happy to connect you to someone else if we’re not the best fit.
