about the artist

After graduating with a degree in Graphic Design from RIT, I entered the corporate design world, but soon found myself wandering down an unforeseen path. In 2019, I left my job to seek treatment for alcohol abuse and eating disorders.

Today, I am 6 years sober and counting, recovered from eating disorders and found passion in creating art again. Though I have returned to work full time as a Graphic Designer, I cannot ignore my love for the traditional media of paper, pencils/paints, and my hands. I find it to be the most healing form of art there is. For these reasons I’ve chosen to dedicate my spare time to help others celebrate the special bond they share with their pets and loved ones by creating realistic but unique portraits. If you would like to immortalize your pet or loved one with a custom, hand-drawn portrait, reach out to me and we can discuss working together!
