I am a multidisciplinary artist with a strong dedication to mark-making, form, and process where concepts often dictate materials and vice versa; I love experimentation and play in the studio. The result of this love seems to show up as a mix of abstract and representational records of language, moments in time in my process, intimate relationships and history utilizing text, repetition, negative space, color and form. At this time, I’m focusing on Elephant Shoe Studio, which melds yoga anad artmaking as well as limited batch objects for where you call homne.

I am not only deeply committed to my own personal practice as an artist, I have a strong desire to provide access and create safe and inclusive spaces to assist people of any age achieve their definition of success in their own practice.
