I fuse contemporary + street grit graffiti mixed media, bringing a fresh, nuanced edge. Each piece holds an ineffable “je ne sais quoi” quality. Unapologetically raw, each piece is a portal—layered, loaded, & lit from within.
Where do you find inspiration?A champion is someone who gets up even when he/she can’t. I’m inspired by resilience—the courage to rise, even when it feels impossible. People who dare greatly.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d dedicate a portion to The Art of Elysium, supporting their mission to use art as a catalyst for healing. I believe in building an artist soul tribe rooted in purpose. The remaining funds would fuel my practice—expanding materials, creating new work, and deepening my ability to contribute meaningfully through art.
