I was born on February 28, 1995 in Evanston, Illinois but spent my first 5 years in neighboring Rogers Park. My parents, Trisha and Bill, brought me to the city of Evanston for the exceptional Public School System.

As a child, I spent lots of time traveling around the vast city of Chicago's art scene. I went from being a stroller bound toddler to actively engaging with artists and material.

I returned to more involved visual creation while at the University of Loyola New Orleans under now Professor Emeritus Mark Grote. I continued on to assist as a shop tech and then a teaching assistant in his final semester at Loyola. Around the same time I began taking courses in the Glass Department at Tulane under professor Gene Koss. Glass was a material I had no prior experience working with but it soon became evident that this unique opportunity would draw me into an entirely different direction. I have now embarked on a journey situating myself amongst materials to a foment discourse around material value and how those perceptions can impact the way in which we navigate the world.
