Biography
​Splitting my time between Portsmouth, Rhode Island, and Chapel Hill, North Carolina, I draw inspiration from both coastal and inland subjects, the stories they tell and the emotions they bring. Growing up with a love of drawing and painting, I pursued my creative passion at the Rochester Institute of Technology, where I studied Industrial Design. This foundation shaped my approach to detail and form, which carries through in all my work.
​
In addition to fine art, I enjoy crafting, including painting custom canvases for needlepoint and exploring a variety of creative projects. My artwork has been shown in several New England exhibitions and I have been thrilled to share my passion with others. Knowing my work has found a place in their home means so much to me. For me, creating art is about connection—inviting others to see the world through my eyes and discover the beauty in the everyday.
