In 2018, I co-founded Bright Walls Mural Festival in my hometown of Jackson, Michigan. I was the curator and artist manager of the festival and worked with the Jackson Young Professionals who really brought the project to life. My role included curating the artist roster, artist management and communications, creative and artistic direction for branding and brand strategy, logo and brand design, as well as I participated in the festival as a muralist. The festival brought 15 artists from around the world to paint in a 7 day festival which also included live music each day, food trucks, community art projects, and artist Q&A panels.
