was born and raised in Dearborn, MI and graduated from the College for Creative Studies in 2017. Since then I have exhibited work in local and national galleries, as well as in public spaces around Detroit. I love painting familiar environments—like the local corner store or an ordinary house— with surrealist juxtapositions that insinuate “not everything is quite right here.” Pairing strong design sensibility with tireless attention to craft, I seek to create work that is as beautiful as it is thought provoking. The results are vibrant paintings, screen prints and murals that are equal parts narrative, decorative, and conceptual.
