For as long I can remember, I’ve wanted to be an artist. It’s my great passion. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to study at the Columbus College of Art and Design, graduating with a BFA. As a student, I discovered that I was equally inspired by both the technical and creative sides. This passion has helped me explore new and continuing techniques throughout my career.
Owning my own small studio taught me countless valuable skills, including employee and time management, building and retaining client relationships, and business development. I’ve also been lucky enough to gain experience working for both large corporations and small family business. I learned team building and mentoring, brand strength, and strategy.
My career has brought great joy to my life, and I am proud of the artist that I have become. I’m excited to be working in the art world as I continue building on my skill and knowledge. I look forward to new trends and advances in the creative arena and how I can implement them in my work. Art and design are a part of so much of what we see, read, and experience every day. I look forward to continually being a part of creating those events.
