I am an abstract painter whose work is about elevating visual curiosities observed in overlooked banality. My compositions are built from collected moments of insignificance but result in a catalog of my personal existence in time and space. I received my BFA in Painting and BS in Art Education in 2005 from Millersville University and MFA in Painting in 2012 from Savannah College of Art and Design. In 2016, while living in Chicago, I made the transition from teaching to graphic design as my day job. My work has been exhibited in Philadelphia, Washington, DC, New York, Richmond, Savannah, and Chicago as well as published in New American Paintings and Studio Visit magazines. In 2019, I relocated to the Philadelphia area to continue my careers as a painter and designer.
