I am situated in Arcata, California. After receiving my Bachelor’s in Studio Art from Cal Poly Humboldt, I knew I wanted to stay in the area as I felt a kinship with the natural environment and culturally vibrant community. My work is fueled by my fascination with the unique ecology of Humboldt County. My figurative work speaks on the condition of femininity, bringing attention to the less favorable aspects, the abject within the beauty.
