My trans*disciplinary work deals with questions surrounding the loosely defined term "human nature" juxtaposed with themes of crisis in the 20th and 21st centuries. In 2016 I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Art Practices from Portland State University, with a Minor in Writing. I have been published in Pathos Literary Magazine, Oregon's Best Emerging Poets (2017/2019, Z Publishing), the Portland State University Vanguard, The Golden Key, Fools Journey, CHANGE Zine, Annex Zine, and Literary Brushstrokes; and I’ve displayed artwork at the Saatchi Gallery in London, England, Arteles Creative Center in Hämeenkyrö, Finland (2018/2021), the Todd Art Gallery in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and in Portland at the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, King School Museum of Contemporary Art, the Crowne Plaza Hotel, UNA Gallery, Lincoln Hall, Erickson Gallery, Littman Gallery, the Holocene, Rose City Comic Con, the Sugar Cube, and Splendorporium.
