Born in Morton Grove, Illinois, USA, I have always had a profound love for art-making. In 2016, a dream of mine came true to study art in one of the greatest cities of artistic inspiration, Florence, Italy. There, I officially began my artistic journey by studying at the Florence Classical Arts Academy for a certificate program in painting and drawing and at the Libera Accademia di Belle Arti Firenze for a BA program in Visual Arts - Painting.

Infused with unique Renaissance inspirations, a classical and contemporary art background, I work in an eclectic range of styles. My works vary from landscape paintings, to stylized expressionistic portraits, biblical and mythological subjects, and Byzantine inspired iconography. I work in many media, such as oil, watercolor, pastel, pen and ink, charcoal, and most especially acrylic.
