My work portrays people caught in moments of time, jumping through one another, then folding into spaces that are familiar and strange. Interested in narrative work, I explore many ways of talking with pictures, including painting, large-scale collage, experimental animation, and zines.

I was the 2021-2022 Creative Fellow at Providence Public Library, a 2021 resident artist at the Ellis-Beauregard Foundation in Rockland, Maine, and a member at the collectively run library and publishing studio, Queer.Archive.Work in Providence, RI. I worked as Project Coordinator for Counterpublic 2023, a triennial in St. Louis, MO that weaves contemporary art into civic infrastructure. My work has been shown in St. Louis, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Maine.

I am a 2025 MFA candidate at Washington University in St. Louis, and received my BA in Studio Art and Psychology from Knox College in 2016.

October 1, 2023 Note: While I focus on growing and evolving my practice during grad school, I think it will be useful to step away from actively having my artwork on internet-display. I’ve archived my portfolio pages for the time being, but I look forward to staying connected to friends and communities old and new. Please reach out via email for a studio visit (in-person or virtual), collaborations, or just to say hello!
