After being diagnosed with Panic Disorder I took to my roots as a visual artist to not only make a statement about mental health awareness, but to heal as well. I always calm when working with delicate ink pens and vivid colors to create heavily detailed complex art works.  Even though in my condition I shake all the time and am constantly full of anxiety, my hands are always still when I draw. My goal is to bring awareness and rid the world of the stigma of mental health in the United States, while achieving my dreams of supporting myself with my art.
