I am a multidisciplinary designer & illustrator born in Riverside, CA, and grew up in Los Angeles, CA. Moving to a big city gave me a new awareness that has cultivated a large part of my work. I am inspired by the power of art that can engage people to feel, think, and act. My art usually contains observations about my own personal quest of

self-discovery and or some sort of social commentary. I believe art can and should be used as a visual megaphone to inspire social change, particularly for those in society without a voice, or who have difficulty being heard or understood. 

 

I graduated from the University of Southern California with a degree in Design in the Summer of 2021. I recently left Cherry LA as lead designer for their collections and Erewhon Market's apparel branch. I am currently assisting American Rag Cie with creative direction.
