A native of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, I’m an artist whose journey is deeply rooted in a family immersed in creativity. Growing up with a general contractor father and an interior designer mother, my childhood was a canvas painted with inspiration. My academic path led me to Meredith College, where I honed my skills in Studio Art, focusing on painting, alongside Business Administration.

Throughout my career, I’ve been actively involved in the arts: managing galleries, teaching various art classes, and contributing to the Alamance Arts Council. Currently, I dedicate my time to painting full-time at Beechwood Metalworks in Burlington, NC. Balancing my daytime work at Beechwood with additional evening and weekend paint sessions, I am constantly producing art and welcome commissioned projects.

For me, art is more than a career; it's a means of bringing people together. I believe in the unifying power of art—its ability to ignite curiosity, initiate conversations, and break barriers. My mission is to spread color and evoke smiles, creating a vibrant tapestry that connects people through the universal language of art.
