My name is
I am an LGBTQ+ artist from New Jersey.
Ever since I was little, my dream career has been in the arts: popstar, fashion designer, and eventually, makeup artist. I went with the latter and got my Beauty and Special Effects Makeup diploma from Make-up Designory NYC in 2016. A few months later, I started doing embroidery, and my whole career path shifted; I wanted to make a living at this. I wanted to make and sell art.
Long story short: On that journey, I found many different things I enjoyed doing and took on every single one in full force. (It's the ADHD.) One thing led to another, and now I'm making YouTube videos, working on digitally illustrating my mom's children's book, and making absolutely anything I want with the help of my Cricut.
Check out my shop, scroll through my blog, and click on my portfolio to see more of my work. It feels pushy to recommend checking out my YouTube channel after saying all of that.
I also want to add that I did look at the recommended guidelines for websites, shops, blogs, and YouTube channels. However, they all go against my neurodivergent nature, so I'm not following them.
Artist Statement
I am an artist of multiple mediums: Digital, fiber, paint, and glass are a few of my favorites. Whether it be embroidery, stained glass, digital illustrations, or greeting cards—I love taking things from inside my brain and making them tangible and visible to the world. Bringing ideas to life is magical to me.
I find inspiration in almost anything because I love colors and shapes—the main things that make up our world—so why wouldn't I feel inspired by nearly everything I see? Keith Haring, his work, and his mission and values inspire me. “Art is for everybody” is something that resonates with me deeply.
I hope to inspire neurodivergent people like myself to follow their dreams, even if those dreams seem unrealistic with certain cards against them.
