Art is where all my creative endeavors started;  what began with pencils and MS Paint turned into pastels and Maya. But despite a lifetime fervor for art, I fell into conflicts that halted artistic projects during the formative ages of 14 to 18 (2013 to 2017). Pursuing art courses at a non-art college reminded me that I needed to work even harder to catch up to the level I wanted to achieve, and this led to an exploration of various media, subjects, and disciplines within art.

My scholastic artwork emphasized themes of history, philosophy, sociology, ethics, religion, and technology. Artworks played off of academic works such as my presentations with the Northeast Regional Honors Conference and interwoven with my secondary majors of marketing and computer science.

As an artist, my consistency lies in overarching themes and intentions rather than a coherent, singular art style. Many of my academic and personal works lean into a realistic technique but draw significant influence from non-realist techniques including cubism and surrealism. My fascination with art history, psychology, and fiction has manifested into artworks that tap into my personal health struggles, visual representations of complex human experiences, and fantastical creations that can only exist within the realms of fiction.
