Nine times out of ten women return to their abuser. 

NoReturnAthens is an idea that might one day be a platform for women affected 
by domestic violence to share their stories and get connected to community. 

The goal: Sustainable Independence Powered by the Gospel.

This is just me messing with reality.

Website Design!

A requirement of one of my senior projects was to write a research paper about my studio's design concept- defending our design with research and exemplifying critical thought. I hate paper writing so I wanted to take a more creative approach that made "research" seem less daunting and lame. Intuitiverestoration.com became the vehicle for me to graphically organize and lay out my thought process and make for an interactive writing/reading experience. Special thanks to my amazingly generous, patient, and servant-hearted brother who helped me make it all happen. Andrew, you make my love of functional beauty become an unbelievable reality.
