Throughout my life, art has been the primary vehicle I’ve used to explore my own inner workings. Emotion is the main component of my work, as art plays a big role in helping me analyze and navigate my struggles, and aids me in the process of self discovery.  I can express things that there are no words for and become friends with things I am afraid of by articulating what I am feeling through human and animal forms.

       My primary goal as an artist is to embrace and encourage what is often painful or uncomfortable introspection; as I strongly believe it helps us to develop a more intimate relationship with ourselves.
