As a Graphic Design student at the California College of the Arts I

am a product of a multidisciplinary background. Through painting,

photography, drawing, and experimental film, my work is generated

through an interest of combining irregular mediums. I thrive on creating

new perspectives through both individual and collaborative efforts

hoping to inspire conversation with others encouraging securitization

and criticism to gain further insight through my work
