About

I was born in Milwaukee, WI, and have been making art for as long as I can remember. I consider my creativity a gift passed down from my mother’s side. I can recall my grandmother teaching me needlepoint and my mother teaching me to knit as a child. My work deals with the invisible connections between all things.

Although I have always loved the arts, fear prevented me from pursuing it for the longest time. It was only after graduating from college in 2010 with a degree in linguistics and no good prospects for a job that I decided to take the plunge to go back to school to gain the skills needed in visual arts. In the spring of 2014, I left art school to pursue a career as an artist. Since then, I have concentrated on building my body of work. I was partnered with artist Della Wells for the 2015 MARN mentors program.

I create abstract works of art in a variety of media, from fibers to metals to acrylics. Lately, I have been focusing on cross-stitch.

I also hosted a podcast called "The Curious Artist” in which I interviewed a diverse group of artists about the art world.
