Art Bio
Outside of work and away from the writing desk, I enjoy a variety of artistic hobbies. Art as a means of expression has always been very important to me, and I appreciate exploring different mediums. I am continuously learning and expanding my skills and am primarily self-taught aside from the art education I received in my youth. My art varies in themes and subjects, but I always try to keep hope and whimsy somewhat near.
Jewelry
My interest in making jewelry first started in the 5th grade (when I was 10). I taught myself first how to work with beads and have since expanded across mediums and jewelry types.

Collage | Multimodal Poetry
While my interest and exploration with multimodal poetry started in 2022, I have recently gained in interest in combining it with collage. Thus, I have been creating collages and pairing them with cut-out poetry.
