I am a high-functioning autistic woman and a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. My journey as an artist is marked by a unique blend of independence, curiosity, and thoughtfulness, traits that are not only inherent but also magnified by my experience with autism.

My artistic journey began with inspiration from renowned illustrators such as Maxfield Parrish, Henry Clive, Margaret Keane, and Thomas Blackshear during my college years. I attended the School of Visual Arts from 2012 to 2014 before transferring to the Fashion Institute of Technology in 2017, where I passionately pursued a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a specialization in Illustration.

My exceptional talent and dedication to my craft have been recognized with prestigious awards such as the 2020 American Illustration Award and the 2021 Bronze Award from the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles. These accolades underscore my success as an artist who delivers impactful designs that inform, persuade, and entertain. My keen eye for detail and strong creative problem-solving skills shine through in my work, particularly in sketching, drawing, and painting.

As a skilled visual artist specializing in drawing and illustration, I am known for my ability to create designs that captivate and leave a lasting impression. My track record in diverse commercial projects speaks volumes about my talent and my unique perspective as an artist.
