Resume
I am a self taught artist looking for opportunities to speak my truth into the world. I make art on a daily basis, and continuously strengthen my style and voice. I have diverse skills in digital and physical media.
I went to college for Anthropology and Criminal Justice and finished my Bachelor's Degree in 2004. After working in the Criminal Justice field for a year, I worked as a massage therapist for 11 years. When the pandemic hit, I quit massage to pursue a full time job as an artist. I now work in the Criminal Justice field to pay the bills while pursuing art on the side. More information about my professional life outside of art can be found on my LinkedIn page.
