I'm Tessa — an artist, cook, baker, meditation/yoga/inquiry teacher, and graphic designer living in the wilds of New Hampshire.

For a long time I kept these parts of myself in separate boxes — the baker for family, the artist in private, the teacher not quite ready to take her seat. I thought I needed to focus on all of the externals and commit to a career. What I've found from years of deep work is that my wholeness is the point. No one to be but me, nothing to do but the things that bring me joy. This is the integration — bringing all of it out into the world to share:

My marbled paintings are an ongoing love affair with pigment, water, and the unpredictability of creative practice.

In the kitchen, I create bespoke gluten-free, dairy-free dessert spreads from my home — Ladyland Farm — crafted with love to make any occasion special.

Through Practice Practice Practice, I teach meditation, inquiry, and tantric hatha yoga to people who are ready to get still and go deep.

And for over a decade I've run Align Graphic Design, helping mission-driven people and organizations show up beautifully in the world.

Different expressions, one distinct flavor: presence, craft, and care in everything I do.
