I am an aspiring human being and an artist. As young as I am I believe I have experienced many facets of life that allows me to have a open perspective to the different scenes and seasons of life. I have lived in different countries and currently am continuing my studio practice to create works that can inspire many others.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am willing to sit with anyone and have a genuine conversation because I believe everyone has something to gift to another being.

I have graduated from art college, where we were taught and pushed to challenge our ideas, position, and perspective. And I think life is an ongoing journey that is lived from moment to moment, or perhaps decision to decision. Regardless, conversation is a tool that allows the sharing of ideas, foundations, and most of all humor.
