I am a two-dimensional multimedia artist who has lived in the Kansas City Metro my whole life. I graduated with a Bachelor of Secondary Education with an emphasis in Art in 2015 and a Master of Curriculum and Instruction in 2021, both from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. For the past 7 years, I have been blending my passion for the arts with teaching as a public-school visual arts educator.

My work revolves around inspiration from the greatest artist of all: Mother Nature. By weaving nature into my art, I find escape through the daily hustle. My imagery comes from a desire to feel free from structure and the weight of the world. The calmness of the ocean shore, the weightlessness of a butterfly’s flutter, or the feeling of time standing still under a canopy of trees can be found throughout my work. My images also evoke memories and times throughout my life when I have felt freedom from reality.
