Born and raised in San Diego, California, I originally pursued an education in Literature and Writing. Some years after graduating and working as a copywriter, I would return to my hobby of painting. 

My main mediums consist of acrylic paints and oil pastels. 

In a largely digital world, I believe the analog experience of being in the same room as a work of art that someone physically created is valuable. My hope is for my art to provide people with an introspective experience that allows for contemplation and heightened emotional experiences.
