After many years working in fashion design, I am now a returning student pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Cincinnati. Through my creative practice, I use an artistic approach to express my perspective on what matters to me. Making art feels like a lifeline. I combine traditional and modern techniques, such as painting, printmaking, ceramics, laser cutting, and digital art, to create mixed-media sculpture pieces. By blending my fashion design and textile experience with new techniques and materials, I am developing a unique artistic style.
