FIRST PERSON BIO
[BECAUSE THAT FEELS MORE REAL]
I’m a dreamer; I explode with ideas, think deeply, weirdly, and stand so far outside the box I probably don’t know what box you’re talking about.
But I never forget what matters nor the details.
My background as a designer started with an in-house communications team where I found myself amidst a ton of editorial design projects. I’ve always done a little bit of that just for fun in my spare time, too.
Much later, I picked up a paint brush and started writing my life out in words and these practices became the much-needed missing pieces to my creative world.
Today, I bring my design skills to my art when I can, my art into my design projects if they fit, and through it all, I love to find a place for words.

I WILL NOT ‘FIX’ SOMETHING THAT WAS GENERATED WITH AI. I DON’T + WILL NEVER USE GENERATIVE AI IN ANY PROJECT BECAUSE FORTUNATELY, I LOVE THE CREATIVE PROCESS.
