I was born and raised in San Mateo, California. My art is my diary. Each piece is a journal entry about the current state of mind. It is a reminder to myself that there are elements that affect me subconsciously that I am not aware of. That while I am organized, my subconscious is in a forever state of chaos.

Through the use of tape, layers of paint drips and splatters, I capture a snapshot of my subconscious. By drawing a contrast between organized structure and chaotic underlying, I provide the visual comprehension of being human.

My designs are inspired by how our conscious mind may want things versus how our unconscious mind operates. That sometimes we want to express our unconscious thoughts and emotions but we fear the scrutiny and judgement of the conscious mind.
