About
Passionate at a young age, I have been drawing for as long as I can remember. I used to nag my mother to use the right colors and was recognized for the depth of my drawings in third grade. I would not be where I am today without many mentors, such as Fletcher Nichols and Whitney Brock. I am still growing, learning, and refining my art. Each new piece is an opportunity to learn.
I sold my first piece in tenth grade and began painting shortly after. At Bucknell University, double majored in business and Studio Art.
Now, as a freelance artist, I have moved to pursue my passions in art, education, and mental health. From 2017-2019 I worked for Teach for America, as a high school math teacher. Upon completion, worked as a mental health researcher with UC Berkeley CALM Program. In 2021, I was accepted to Florida State University as a Doctoral Candidate for Clinical Psychology under Dr. Thomas Joiner to study suicide and work towards changing the conversation around mental health.
Educationally, I have a master's in psychology from Pepperdine University. In 2027 I am expected to have an additional master's and doctorate of philosophy in Clinical Psychology. I am also a Personal Trainer and Certified Nutritionist with F45. I find blending mental and physical health helps me and others to achieve More Life.
art is an important component in my life to stay creative, focused, and balanced.
