Making new worlds with paint, pixels, and people. Powered by detours, reverence, and reckless amounts of caffeine.

The Flops
✴︎ Glued my linen canvas to the wall.
✴︎ Made a full magazine before checking print costs.
✴︎ Ran off to NYC at 16, thinking I could land a restaurant job.
✴︎ Lost my dog three times—she’s now in an escape-proof harness.
✴︎ Hosted events no one came to.
✴︎ Still working on the same crochet project. Year five.
The Wins
✴︎ Got my license in 2024. Now a fierce LA driver.
✴︎ Started an artist salon series that is even better than I imagined.
✴︎ Married my high school sweetheart at 22.
✴︎ I read a lot. You can borrow a book!
✴︎ I’ve made 100+ oil paintings. Most of them live in closets, but one lives in Rome.
✴︎ Dropped out of art school.
✴︎ Learned to cook—and I’m good at it.
Two Truths and a Lie
✴︎ I’ve cried in the bathroom at every art opening of mine.
✴︎ Modeled nude in a forest for a famous photographer.
✴︎ Got kicked out of Christian summer camp for making out with a girl.
