About The Artist

Artist Statement

I am a Bay Area–based contemporary artist working across painting, photography, and mixed media. My work explores identity, transformation, and the evolving relationship between the inner and outer self. Through layered abstraction and figuration, I examine how personal history, memory, and lived experience shape who we become. I work out of studios in Sausalito and Oakland and am currently focused on my ongoing body of work, Finding Self.
