From an early age, I've always been an avid daydreamer imagining I was somewhere other than where I was. As a child, my alphabet sheets were joined by paper doodles of stars and planets. While my adult life was filled with post-it doodles during downtime between clients. Space became a secret getaway from difficult times during school as a child and now as an adult. Each narrative is how I saw the world as a child and how I continue to see it when my imagination is sparked. With each collection, I strive to bring the feeling of wonder I experience in my daydreams to life for others. Also showing the magic of not only space but the imagination of children that can bloom into the optimism of an artist.
