Born in Miramar, Florida, I am grateful to have been raised in an environment where I can embrace my creative drives. From a young age, I have always felt inspired and moved by the visual arts, but was unsure of my work. As I continued to grow I have learned to love the process just as much as the result, allowing me to flourish as an artist and as a person. As I continue growing, art reminds me how connected I feel to the world. Not just creating but absorbing. A few years ago, I had the chance to visit the ‘Museo Nacional de Prado,’ and not only did it expose me to the famous works of Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, and Joan Miro, more importantly it gave me the opportunity to meet new people and experience firsthand how art emulsifies culture, identity, and unity in one institute. Whether it be the esteemed works of Germanies Albrecht Durer in one room or the neoclassical Swedish collection featured next door, each individual stroke, sculpture, and even frame shared a different anecdote, acting as a gateway to the rest of the world.
