When did you know you wanted to be an artist?

Since Always.

Who would you say has been the biggest influence on you as an artist?

I am motivated by the remarkable narratives and concepts of the work created by the Artists’ Louise Bourgeois, Gerard Richter, and Nari Ward.

The collective day to day push and response that I receive from my family, friends, supporters, and collectors to keep going Is really what continues to influence my work.

Where does your creative process originate?

My entire work process is an emotional response.

What was a major influence in your sculptural pursuit?
The desire to create recognizable forms.

What project are you working on?
I am balancing a few projects right now; priming work for exhibit, exploring new materials and collaborations, and completing a series of paintings that have been on the back burner for a couple of years.
