“I’m happiest creating art, transforming wrecked car parts and sharing the story behind each piece to see how it makes people feel.”

I love creating mixed media art using reclaimed car parts—transforming what was once overlooked into something original, meaningful, and impossible to duplicate.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration from life. Every piece I create carries a story, shaped by emotion and experience, making each work truly one of a kind.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest that $25,000 into opening my own gallery—turning it into a space that represents my work, my story, and a place for others to connect through art.
