Welcome to my website!
I am a self-taught artist originally from Southeastern OH. I earned my BFA in Design Communications/Business Administration from Belmont University in Nashville, TN in 2006, where I also worked as the Student Manager for an on-campus art gallery. I then spent 6 years in Jackson, WY, just south of Yellowstone National Park, where I worked as a Graphic Designer and sold paintings in local galleries. I now reside in the beautiful Ozarks with my family and continue to work as a teacher & freelance artist. My passion for the outdoors fuels my creativity & is a constant inspiration for my work! Besides the arts, I enjoy traveling the world, hiking, backpacking, camping, biking, nature, and all of the beautiful things in this world that continue to inspire me.
