I am a practicing artist from Ontario, now based in British Columbia attending Emily Carr University of Art and Design. As a visual artist, I enjoy exploring various mediums to develop many art forms such as sculpture, illustration, photography, videography, textile work and more. I greatly believe in the beauty of repurposing and making a statement by using found materials. Trying new practices and constantly creating helps my creative energy persevere. Consequently, I continue to have multiple projects on the go and am always filling out sketchbooks. 

​

The world around inspires me within all aspects of my life; traveling, being immersed in nature and people watching have the strongest influence on my practice. In my daily life, finding beauty in the mundane causes my mind to consistently flow with new ideas, even when I am not physically creating or just sketching en plein air. Through art I find connection, peace and understanding.
