My love for painting started in kindergarten with a landscape finger painting of my backyard. As a child and teenager, I took every Saturday and Summer art program that I could find. I received a BFA in painting from Indiana University, Bloomington in the late 90's.

After living for many years in San Diego where I consumed all the fish tacos anyone could want, I moved on to the coffee wonderland of Seattle. I then headed East in 2007 to complete an Associate’s Degree in Textile Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology.

I am now a Brooklyn based artist/designer.
