She has participated in residency programs at Ne’Na Contemporary Art Space in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and at the Tallgrass Artist Residency in Matfield Green, Kansas. She is also a recipient of the Gabriele S. Haberland European Travel Award.
Schmidt holds a BA from Gonzaga University and an MFA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She has worked as part of the team at Tandem Press and Highpoint Center for Printmaking. Schmidt currently resides on ancestral Dakota land in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she continues to create and explore the intersections of art, landscape, and human experience.
