About Me

Art has always been a passion. From sketching, to painting, to jewelry making, to steel sculpture, I've always enjoyed expressing myself through artistic pursuits. Through formal and informal training and amazing mentors, I've explored various medium and found passion working with metal.

My main medium is metal - classically known as the human symbol for strength, fortitude, and courage. Creating a soft beauty through a medium that represents strength and sharpness brings a delightful duality. I'm particularly fond of using scrap metal and found objects and combining them into sculptural elements.

The inspiration that arises in the present moment is what brings me joy. Moving this presence through me to create beauty in art is my passion. I find connection and creativity in nature and much of my work is my representation of the blissful, peaceful, connected energy I feel when outside and feeling connected to all life.
