My studio is based in Santa Barbara, California, but my work stretches the California coastline and the rolling hills of Sonoma’s valley. My work is inspired by my daily walks in nature and my joy of treasure hunting. Not in gold or silver but in the moments often unnoticed. The moments, its textures, colors, and quiet rhythms—deeply informs my work. I find inspiration in the simple yet profound details of everyday life: the way a stone is shaped by the sea, the worn spaces in your favorite pair of jeans, the shifting of a changing seasons in familiar landscapes.

I create in various mediums, letting myself play and express through paintings, drawing, sculpting, weaving allowing the materials to guide the process. Each piece reflects a mix of exploration and observation, capturing the quiet details that often go unnoticed.

At my core, I’m an explorer—in art and in life. Not an explorer who sets out to discover the sea, but one who sits where they are and discovers what goes unnoticed.
