I have been creating art for all my life, I vividly remember finger painting at daycare. I grew up in Edmonds, Washington with my family. I was lucky enough to have parents who supported me and my art endeavors. They provided me with art classes throughout my childhood that fostered my love for art. During high school, I took all the art classes I could and was part of my school’s swim team. I ultimately decided to further my education in art at Western Washington University. I am enjoying my time here and am creating new artwork that I am proud of.
