I grew up in the marshy areas of mid-Michigan. I have a passion for nature that drives my work into areas of sculpture and drawing. I primarily work with clay, fibers, and various drawing techniques. My works often revolve around the body and its experiences as a vessel in space. My sculptures and drawings portray beings that are playful and curious, reflecting my own inquisitive nature. The forms I create pull from my experience as a queer person growing up in a conservative environment, but also how that relates to the delicate ecology of the natural habitats in which I immerse myself.
