About
  • I am a Memphis native visual and music artist. Currently, I work as a Studio Assistant for sculptor Judy Onofrio in Rochester, MN. As a natural creator, I initially used artwork as a way to keep busy and eventually I developed my talents. Now, I've garnered experience with large canvas painting, sculpting with new materials, painting murals, commission work from photos, simple tattoo designs, matting and framing, and consistently expressing myself in independent studies. Outside of art, I participated in community service and leadership opportunities as a part of the Memphis Ambassadors Program for 3 years, Army JROTC for 2 years, and, most recently, the Working Group on Equity and Inclusivity for 1 year.
