I create art to make ideas tangible, turning emotion, memory, and movement into something others can see, feel, and connect with.

My favorite type of art to create is ceramics and sculpture. I love working in 3D because it lets me shape ideas into physical forms. I enjoy experimenting with new materials and processes, pushing myself to explore different mediums and ways of making.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in organic forms and textures, overlooked moments, memory, and perception, using them to shape work that feels both personal and tangible. I’m drawn to the subtle details people often miss, translating them into physical forms. Through ceramics and sculpture, I explore how materials can hold, shift, and even distort experience, allowing each piece to reflect both what is seen and what is felt.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had $25,000, I would use it to build my art studio and invest in equipment and materials for my practice. I would focus on developing my ceramics and sculpture work, expanding the tools I need to create and experiment more freely. I would also use part of it to support my education and continued schooling, allowing me to grow my skills and strengthen my path as an artist while building a sustainable creative space for my future.
