Hi, I’m Keetra. I currently divide my time between “Retooling” familiar creative tools, designing participatory experiences, and teaching. I’ve had the titles Graphic Designer, Experiential Director, and Artist – but whatever the task, if I’m making, I’m happy. I often play with the fallibility of communication and social connection; ever inspired by discovery, forced bumbles, and new materials + tech.
