I’m a multidisciplinary artist based in Libertyville, Illinois, working across mixed media, digital art, and ceramics. My practice is bold, vibrant, and often whimsical, aimed at sparking joy while probing the contradictions and complexities of the world around us. Sometimes it’s playful just for the sake of play.

Beyond my studio, I serve as the Program Director and Exhibits Curator at the Adler Arts Center, where I champion creativity and community. I’m also a board member and designer for the Libertyville Historical Society and a volunteer with Placing Paws Animal Rescue. I’m passionate about helping senior dogs and deeply committed to preserving and protecting local history for future generations.

When I’m not making or curating, you’ll find me on long walks with my beloved dog and best friend, Einstein.
