I have been drawing and coloring since the age of seven, sketching characters like Bugs Bunny and Conan the Adventurer on lined notebook paper. My artistic path began to take shape in fourth grade when my art teacher, Mrs. Robinson, recognized my talent and encouraged me to join the after-school Art Club. With the support of Mrs. Robinson and my classroom teacher, Ms. Bowles, I was accepted into an art magnet program for fifth grade an hour south of where I lived.
At South Miami Elementary, Ms. Broom continued to nurture and strengthen my artistic foundation, preparing me for the magnet program at South Miami Middle School. There, Mr. Summers helped shape me as both an artist and a young creative thinker.
I later auditioned and was accepted into the New World School of the Arts, where I was fine tuned into a professional artist under the mentorship of Mr. Hunter, Mr. Wyroba, and the dedicated faculty and staff. The skills, discipline, and creative vision I developed at New World School of the Arts laid the groundwork for my artistic voice today.
Three years later, I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Ringling College of Art and Design. I currently work as a professional Artist and Graphic Artist, continuing to build on a lifelong passion for visual storytelling and creative expression.
