Noelle is a San Diego–based multidisciplinary artist drawing inspiration from nature, culture, and community. She reveals profound truths within the ordinary, creating space for reflection, healing, and liberation. Her relationship with photography began in 2018 through an introductory course at Grossmont College and a formative trip to Japan, then deepened through travels to Australia, where she joined Soul Alphabet, a Black-, Indigenous-, queer-, and femme-led artist community in rural Perth, Western Australia. It was not until 2024 that she began pursuing photography in a more focused and professional capacity. Grounded in visual storytelling and community care, her practice explores how art nurtures belonging and collective transformation.

Art became a grounding and meditative practice during periods of personal mental health struggle, shaping her belief in creativity as a vital tool for survival, expression, and restoration. These experiences directly informed the founding of Liberation Through Art, her nonprofit dedicated to accessible art and mental health programming that empowers the Black community in San Diego.
