I was born in 1994 and grew up in Rockton, Pennsylvania, a small, rural town outside of DuBois. I studied graphic arts at Clarion University of Pennsylvania from 2012-2016 and graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in graphics. While in school, I worked as the Graphic Editor of the school newspaper, The Clarion Call, along with achieving the position of curatorial assistant at the Carlson Library Art Gallery. I also had the ability to intern at two locally owned customisable clothing  shops where I learned not only client design, but screenprinting, heat transfer, and laser engraving.

Since my first contact with design software in early 2009, I have been thrilled to create things not only two-dimensionally on a computer screen, but also through mediums such as ceramics, drawing, oil painting, printmaking, and photography. I began my creations with highly saturated colours and geometric shapes. I also enjoy to explore the relationship between industry and nature and the human connection with colour.

My biggest reward is seeing commercial products I've created in public with no name or face attached to such. I enjoy creating posters, apparel, and other items seen by the public eye.

I currently live and work in Clarion, Pennsylvania. WEBSITE
