I am a painter working in New York City. I was born in Temecula, California. I graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2021 with a Bachelor of Arts. I won the D. Barton Johnson Award for Academic Excellence and Best Critical or Scholarly Essay in Russian Literature, Art, or Culture.

     I have worked in professional artist studios in New York City and in art advisory at Ash Fine Art. I work primarily in oil paint and I favor figurative painting.
