About Me
I am a Painter and Illustrator born in Chicago, IL and raised in Wisconsin, with a Fine Arts degree from the University of Wisconsin River Falls. From a very early age I've showed a love for arts and creating; always loving to work with my hands. Throughout my early education and college years I had continually pursued my desire to master my craft and grow as an artist, taking every art class available to me. Throughout my academic career, I have developed an interest in many fields within the art industry working with a variety of projects in different mediums. Some of these interests include tattoo and logo design, clothing design, muralist and street art, web design, children’s book illustration, and teaching art to others.
Since graduating with my degree in 2020, I have began a new journey as an Art Consultant in Fort Myers, FL. In addition to painting and drawing, I have the privilege of helping clients through the process of choosing artwork to decorate their homes. Being able to work closely with other artists from around the world, designers, and art galleries in this role has opened up a new door of inspiration in my creative process.
I often discover inspiration in my life experiences and the people around me as they impact my life in beautiful ways. I always have the enthusiasm to explore creative possibilities and enjoy challenging myself to go outside of my comfort zone. This allows my passion for art to be a constant source of growth and excitement.
