Creation is the only outlet that truly allows me to explore my emotions safely. The physical act of creating is liberating.

I make a living doing stained glass, but painting is where I feel most free to express myself and explore without bounds.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw inspiration from the relationship between creator and viewer. How shape and color shift meaning depending on who is looking. My work invites personal interpretation, completing the piece through connection. I create from trust: in myself, my creator, my vision, and the goodness of humanity. Grounded in knowing I’m where I need to be, I let my creativity move freely.
What would you do with $25,000?With the $25,000, I would invest in a water laser to expand my stained glass business. This would not only make glasswork profitable, but also foster a creative community by opening the space to other artists. My goal is to collaborate, share visions, and transform the possibilities of glass art, ultimately enriching the art form and the community as a whole.
