I am so mixed I define myself as a melting pot of everything. Even if I was asked to break it down, to be honest I wouldn’t know where to start.

I wanted to be a cardiologist when I was younger until I realised I enjoy expressing myself creatively through painting, acting, designing and dancing. I moved from Milwaukee to NYC to pursue modelling and through my experiences I have learn’t to never let anything stand in your way when you’re following your dreams. And most importantly never compromise who you are because the industry wants you to be something you’re not. I believe it’s important to stay true to yourself and the universe will make sure that you achieve your goals.

 I’m an Abstract impressionists and I love working with oils, acrylic, and mixed media. I use painting as an escape to release my inner thoughts and emotions. Art connects me to my subconscious, and I see it as a beautiful way to communicate ideas.

While attending the School of Visual Arts I perfected my digital skills so that I could expand my creativity in different facets of art so I dabble in photography, graphic design, video editing and I enjoy blogging.
