About

I am a New York City–based artist drawn to the quiet poetry of the natural world and the emotional architecture of the spaces we inhabit. My work brings together psychology, climate consciousness, and the contemplative practice of presence. 

I grew up in Indiana, wandering through woods and fields and spending summers along Lake Maxinkuckee in Culver. Those early experiences shaped how I see light, land, and seasonality. They instilled a reverence for nature that continues to guide my work.

Alongside nature, I am drawn to architecture and the built environment. I am interested in the tension and harmony between what we construct and what grows on its own. Buildings appear in my work both literally and as quiet structures within a landscape. I often use recycled and found materials gathered from the streets of New York, allowing the city itself to become part of the surface. This material choice is intentional. It reflects my ongoing engagement with climate and environmental resilience.

A year working in solar energy for agriculture changed how I see a landscape. I no longer view it as scenery alone, but as infrastructure, stewardship, and relationship.

There is a calm and playfulness in my work. Whimsy appears through color choices and in the subjects I return to, including overlooked details like dandelions or subtle shifts in tone within the ordinary. I am interested in how small visual moments can hold emotional weight.

I am currently deepening my studio practice through experimentation and material exploration. My goal is to translate ecological awareness into intimate visual experiences that bring both reverence and joy for the natural world into the spaces we inhabit.

If you are building something thoughtful and rooted in storytelling, whether as a curator, collaborator, climate-focused institution, or collector interested in commission work, I would welcome the opportunity to connect.
