[ the house lights dim ]
Imagination isn’t something we outgrow. It’s something we need.
I’m Keri — a teaching artist, expressive-arts facilitator, puppeteer, voice actor, and possibility collector, helping people reconnect with themselves through creativity, play, and just enough delightful mischief.
[ where to wander ]
One human, a lot of hats.
at the heart of all of it —
Play isn’t the opposite of healing. Play is one of the ways healing begins.

What people say.
“Keriann is one of those professionals that, if one is fortunate enough to work with, it happens only once during one’s career. She has a dynamic way with clients that is unrivaled… Keriann comes to work every day with openness, adaptability, positivity, and does so while connecting with teens and harnessing creative energy in meaningful ways. Keriann has developed some of the most effective interventions within her personalized Expressive Arts curriculum that I have ever experienced.”
— Nora Durzo, LMFTClinical Director, Pathways Community Services
“Thank you for being someone my daughter can relate to and look up to. I appreciate your work, and you — more than I can put into words. I think you are doing what you were meant to be doing. As a teacher I often question my ‘why.’ I hope you never do.”
— A parent“It’s rare, especially coming from Arizona, to see a queer adult living their most authentic and joyful life, and knowing that’s a place I can really get to is amazing. You just being yourself is incredibly inspiring. It makes me all the more hopeful for my own future.”
— Client, age 17“Some of those things we talked about in group I had never talked about before, so I want to thank Keri for making me feel comfortable enough to share the uncomfy moments. Theater therapy is really amazing, and I’m kind of upset I didn’t know about it before.”
— Client, age 14“It was honestly a blast with everything we did in group — you genuinely brought some great times. I loved your groups so much. I felt as if I always gained things from it.”
