Back Story:

Though I enjoy using traditional materials (mostly graphite, chalk pastel, colored pencils, markers or watercolors), I fell in love with digital art (via programs like Illustrator, Sketchbook, and Photoshop) before I had ever painted a real canvas with acrylic or oil-based paints. The appreciation I gained for the arts in my early 20s gave me a desire to create and a hope that everyone would "see why" art holds so much value.

Years of experimental learning led to various artist experiences within my community and positions at Time For Art, LLC and Wine and Design. Those experiences include instructing classes and workshops as well as partnering and co-facilitating creative networking opportunities and events. I now accept freelance gigs and serve clients seeking custom chalk lettering on a case-by-case basis while I work an unrelated day job for now and focus on improving my typography and lettering skills, digital artwork/illustration and storytelling portfolio, and sticker and paper craft making on the side.
