As a muralist and a teacher of multilingual learners in the Twin Cities, I am dedicated to creating spaces where art becomes a universal language; a way for people to connect, communicate, and share in the beauty of the world.

“Aldri Alene” means “Never Alone” in Norwegian, the language of my grandparents, and the ancestors who came before me.

In any time of solitude, creating art helps me feel grounded and connected to them, and the big, beautiful world around us. I hope my art serves as a reminder that you too, are never alone.

Nature, as both a subject and inspiration, plays a vital role in my art, reminding us of our shared connection to the world around us. In my practice, I seek to foster inclusivity and reflection, creating welcoming environments where all experiences are valued and where art becomes a tool for healing, unity, and growth.
