What is your position at E11 and when did you start?

Operations director, I started as general manager January 2024 and as of 2025 I became the operations director.

What first drew you to Burning Man and/or Element 11?

The first time I went to E11 was a last-minute decision in 2019. I had ran into an old friend and we started talking about Fire spinning because I had tried it out for the first time in May 2019. She had told me about Utah Fire Tribe and how they spin fire at E11 so 3 days before the event I decided to buy a ticket and go.

How many times have you been to E11 and/or Burning Man?

I have attended E11 in 2019,2021,2022,2023, and 2024. Burning man I have been in 2022, 2023, and 2024.

What is your most memorable moment at E11?

My most memorable moment was this recent E11 2024. The fireworks had started and my daughter at the time was 1 and half years old. She was sitting on her mom’s lap and looked a little scared. This was her first time experiencing full on fireworks show like this one. She had climbed down her mom’s lap and decided to sit right next to me on the ground and get as close as she could.

How are you going to interpret this year’s theme at the event?

Hopefully with being on the Board, I will be able to help in ways to interpret the Neon Nexus theme in some way.

What is your favorite principle and why?

Radical self expression. Being able to put yourself out there and showing the community how you express yourself outside the default world is my favorite Burning man principle.

What are you passionate about?

Right now I am passionate about helping lead Utah Fire Tribe into performing our fire show at E11 and getting us into Burning Man’s great circle.
