I was born and raised in Houston, Texas. I grew up loving to draw and paint with traditional media, but I didn’t take an art class until college. During my undergraduate years at Texas A&M University, I practiced traditional and digital art mediums, I learned how to code and design using a variety of media, and I traveled to Italy for 3 months to gain an international perspective on the global art markets. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Visualization in December 2019.

I moved to New York City a few months later to pursue big dreams of being an artist and graphic designer (and close the gap with my long-distance boyfriend of 3 years). Since then, I’ve freelanced and held positions with many arts organizations. I also received my Master’s in Professional Studies for Arts and Cultural Management from Pratt Institute in May 2023. Oh and I got married!
