I sought my education in Cincinnati, Ohio, where I was born and raised. I graduated from the college of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP) at the University of Cincinnati with a Bachelor's in Fine Art and a focus on drawing and painting in 2023.
Since then I have been experimenting with all sorts of 2D media, from gouache and oil pastel to charcoal and collage. I can often be found figure drawing at my local drawing center. I've even been modeling there since early 2024.
As much as I love being a recluse in my studio, I make a point to get out at any opportunity. Most of my inspiration comes from my daily life and the memories I've made with others. I could list my favorite influences or spin a sob story, but really, I just like to make things.
