My Dad is a big part of my life. He helped me to get to where I am now. He let me develop and learn and grow in the direction I wanted to. How, You ask? Well when there was I time I didn’t know what to do with my life. As we all have those thoughts “What will I ever do when I get older?” I started to do what I loved to do. Use my voice, game, and taking stuff apart and putting it back together. So it started and my dad was very supportive of what direction I wanted to take so I owe a lot to him. Read more>>

Gratitude fills my heart as I reflect on my journey as an artist thus far. I owe a tremendous debt of thanks to Angie Dougherty, Starbucks Store Manager at Hampton Inn & Suites in Downtown Kansas City, Missouri. Through her kindness, I was able to debut my work in her store during May and June of 2023. This was the first time my work was on display to the public and where I sold my first painting.

As a young child, I approached these challenges with a simplicity that shielded me from their true complexities. It was only later that I grasped the profound dedication of my parents, especially after my second surgery at the age of 4, filling me with deep gratitude.  Read more>>

Ottilia is a home goods and apothecary shop. I have a love for clean beauty and all things that make you feel good. I wanted to share these products with my community. Education was a big part of the job as many had not heard of the products at Ottilia. I love sampling products with clients – talking about texture, smell and possible applications. Read more>>

I don’t know if I have a moment that I can say is “the kindest” moment. But I am always so taken aback by how kind people are. From clients referring me to their friends, people taking the time out to compliment me, vendors helping support my business, and my family’s unconditional love and belief in me- I am so incredibly grateful.
