During my research for my final MFA Master’s Thesis show, I’ve studied numerous diseases that cause havoc and heartache to all of those that come along their paths. Being about to create work with such a strong effect on those around me has given me insight into my own way that I approach the world around me. I try to see the beauty in even the smallest part of the world and continue to take influence from things that many people have difficulty discussing.

I feel that being about to cope with the harshness in the world around me, has allowed me to better grow as an artist and individual.
