Who?

Hi! I’m Amber (she/her), an artist and educator from Snuneymuxw Territory (Nanaimo), Canada. Welcome to my digital garden website, full of ideas at different stages of growth. It is in development (as am I).
I hold an MFA in Art from the University of Lethbridge, and I recently completed my Master of Education in Educational Leadership in June 2025. I’ve taught as a sessional instructor at the University of Victoria, Vancouver Island University, and North Island College, offering courses in studio art, art history, and video game studies. In 2024, I was honoured to receive the Faculty of Fine Arts Award for Innovative Course Design from UVic for my course Representing Women in Video Games. I’m also the founder of Sad Girl Review, an independent art and literature publication. My practice and research emphasize interdisciplinary approaches to artmaking and arts-based pedagogy. My work tends to span academic, artistic, and community-focused initiatives.
