You're not just someone who loves the ocean. You're a waterperson.

And waterpeople need more than a faded chart on the wall. You deserve something that feels like a place feels—something that pulls you back to the sea and pushes you forward into your next adventure.

Waterpeople need beautiful maps.

If you’ve ever been up before the sun to make a tide, navigated by dead-reckoning, or planned your next escape with a coffee and a chart, you’re in the right place.

These maps exist for people like you—waterpeople—who don’t just use maps, but live through them. Whether you're hauling lines, chasing swell, or looking for buoys on trees on a coastal trail, you carry the ocean with you. These maps are made for that life.

Of all the people in the world who need maps and dreams it’s waterpeople: folks on sailboats, fishboats, and powerboats; the surfers and wave sliders, and all the other board riders; the divers and swimmers; the people who make that hike down to the seashore at low tide, or trek up that mountain to look out to sea at sunset; and especially all the waterpeople who are ocean advocates, tirelessly fighting for the long term sustainability of our shared marine spaces.

What I make

These are ocean-focused wall art maps for people who build their lives around the ocean.

They’re not just pretty—they’re precise, intentional, and deeply personal.

They’re meant for storytelling, dreaming, and planning

For pointing to a place and saying, “That’s where it happened.”

And for remembering where you’ve been while scheming where to go next.

Each map is built from the best available data and painstakingly refined from a perspective that balances art and the ocean.

Crafted to feel textured, lived-in, real.

Captain • Cartographer • Ocean Obsessed

I am the captain of a fine little ship called Whisky Jack II. I live at sea with my husband Tristan (an animal enthusiast, marine biologist, and commercial diver). Most years, we travel up and down the BC coast doing marine science and mapping work. This project? It’s rooted in those hard-earned miles: in long watches, crazy weather, and mind-blowing anchorages. These maps are the result of deep immersion—literally and figuratively—in the places I map.

Did I mention that I love maps?

I combined my love of cartography and my love of the sea into this map collection.

Maps are important. They are for remembering where we come from and imagining where we're going. They are for telling stories and coming up with wild schemes late at night around the table with friends. When a map is hung on a wall it gives us a daily reminder of what's possible and helps remind us to put in the work towards our goals: places we want to go, things we want to do, all in the quest to live a life that we can proudly call our own.
