My Studios

Over the years I have had the pleasure of having some amazing studio to work in. I feel that it is absolutely crucial to love the area you will be perfecting your craft. I spend so much time in my studio so It's important to me that I create an place that I enjoy spending hours and hours at a time in. 




This was probably my favorite studio to work in. Not only was did it have amazing lighting, the room was HUGE. Being on the 2nd floor was perfect because of the great breeze on summer days with the 3 windows that wrapped around the room. The room was big enough to separate into 3 sections; a bedroom, living room and studio. Sadly, I moved out to live in Boston about a year ago. 


The great thing about going to school at Mass Art in Boston was the incredible studio area they had for the design students. This area was full of several studios where the artist were able to work. Working amongst talent students all at the same time was extremely inspiring and motivating. The Boston skyline to the left my me was also a nice break for my eyes.


This is my current studio now in Boston, MA. The great thing about this studio is that it's a separate room attached to my bedroom. Not having my workspace directly in my bedroom is so refreshing. Being able to close the door between my work and personal life is helpful in not losing concentration.

This is a personal piece I did last year in my independent study class. It was a one on one course with a professor where you worked on a body of work around one theme. This was the first piece from a series that was focused on my life and the journey into finding my true self. This journey touched on my experiences with discrimination, family issues, and relationships.
