BIO
I grew up surrounded by the arts, but after college I entered the corporate world and strayed away from creativity. After years away from painting, I picked up a paintbrush again on New Year’s Day 2021 — a moment that completely changed the trajectory of my life.
What started as a return to intuitive abstract painting has grown into a career creating landscapes, large-scale paintings, murals, and live painting experiences. I work intuitively, allowing emotion, memory, movement, and place to guide the process. My work often explores nostalgia, warmth, peace, and the feeling of a distant memory.
I’ve always been drawn to scale — the bigger, the better. Murals give me the opportunity to take the movement, emotion, and feeling of my paintings and translate them into an environment people can actually experience and become part of.
For me, a mural isn’t simply a painting on a wall. It becomes part of a space, part of an experience, and ultimately, part of the memories people create there.
