Creating art is not just what I do, it’s my calling. I’ve been participating in The Arts since a very young age. I love all mediums, but working with clay to create abstract sculptures is where I can most authentically express myself. The style of my work has Maximalist vibes, like modern day Rococo: elaborate ornamentation with bright, dynamic colors. My work is an extension of who I am. I want to inspire people, to open them up to possibility, to spark curiosity and draw them in with how absolutely Extra it is, and then cause them to think deeper about the issues hidden underneath the glamour.

I work primarily in clay but nothing is off-limits. I love finding new materials to add to my sculptures and I’m constantly searching for new ways to support the themes and structures of my work.

I draw inspiration in simple things like the sound of my children’s laughter, the feel of my bare feet on the warm grass, the way a song moves me, or the peace I feel in my soul when I’m near the ocean. I find that the more I am open to being inspired, the more inspiration finds me.
