✺

I’m a Southern Californian native living a simple life painting, surfing, and traveling where my heart guides me.

I received a BFA in illustration from CSULB in 2014, taught art to kids for a few years at after school studios, then took a leap of faith in being a full-time artist while moving to O’ahu in 2021.

I’m currently working as a freelancer working with clients, collaborating with brands, having art shows, and always painting a board somewhere in between.

My love for the art of surfing, fantastical daydreaming, curiously exploring, romancing the land and ocean, and meeting new people inspire my heart to dance and sing is the ripe recipe for my art to come alive.
