Constantly searching for better ways to communicate in my personal and professional life. My favorites revolve around stories—of the past, of the future, of our dreams and of our shared visions. Through design, illustration, and a willingness to do whatever it takes, I strives to create meaningful work within a community of fellow weirdos.
I grew up in San Diego, CA then moved to Portland, OR to go to college at Portland State University. Being surrounded by such a creative city and endlessly talented human beings taught me you have to find your own inspiration. So I took an internship in Berlin, DE and found that traveling was how I filled my soul. I spent my late 20’s traveling and learning from each destination as much as the people within it. I find I am truly inspired after a good trip somewhere in the world but my soul ached for something more.
As of 2020, I happily settled into the high desert of Southern California. Joshua Tree, CA is a hub for creatives. The desert offers the kind of quiet and space that allows a creative to truly spread their wings.
As of 2024 I am taking on more painting and branding projects. Looking forward to traveling and directing a large scale sculpture for Burning Man.
