Artist’s Statement:

I find the absence of absoluteness so beautiful, and life is overflowing with grey areas that need to be discovered and explored.

Believing every negative can be balanced by a positive is unrealistic.
A spectrum of personalities and experiences exist, making us all unique. Telling stories exploring these spaces creates relatability that reaches a wide range of people. I do this by taking in the thoughts of those around me, helping me process and understand different walks of life. I find commonality in unexpected places, allowing me to create bridges.
