My Inspiration

I'm inspired by seemingly minute details that fuel me with angst and anxiety. I tend to overanalyze anything and everything, and my art is a continual exploration of complex, alienating emotions. I welcome viewers to interpret my work as they see fit, and I enjoy hearing others' unique perspectives.

Fun Facts

My style developed from being incredibly bored in school. As a young child, I doodled cartoon figures, but when I reached middle school, I began drawing alien faces in the margins of my notebooks. This eventually evolved into the condensed patterning of figures that is seen in my paintings today.
