I have always loved crafting, however due to my worsening disabilities, I not able to do the things I used to love. I have just started working with resin and candle crafting.
I am a native of Cumberland, Maryland. I began my career as an artist at the age of 16, when I held my first solo art show in Frostburg, Maryland. I have since held seven solo art exhibitions. I was a featured artist in the 2014 & 2015 Frostburg Arts Walk; “35 Under 35” in the 2016 Issue of Allegany Magazine; Maryland Public Television’s “Our Town: Cumberland,” and the 2023 Savage Mountain Punk Festival. I am currently a semi-finalist of the 2024 CBIZ Mural Project of Downtown Cumberland.
