About

I’m a 22 year old artist who just recently moved away from a sink hole named Las Vegas to Los Angeles seeking a career in either art and/or photography. I came here under the wing of my supportive older brother with absolutely no plan. My dream is to be involved in animation; preferably character and concept design. 

I’ve been drawing since I could hold a pencil; before I could even write my own name. It is the one thing I am truly passionate about. Photography can’t even compete with my love for art. From first grade up until my senior year in high school, I was adamant about becoming a teacher. I was always frustrated when people assumed I wanted to become an artist when I grew up simply because I could draw. I don’t know why it bothered me so much. I guess because I held it so personal to me. Then I turned 18 and I was like, “Fuck it. I’m going for it.” I got my Associate’s in Commercial Photography and here I am waiting out the days until I can declare residency so I can attend school at a lower tuition rate. This is the life I chose. I am just as eager as I am terrified. 

My brother is ultimately the reason I decided to pursue an art career. He has never stopped supporting me and is the reason I had an opportunity to move out here. Being a little sister to him is indescribable. 

I’ve been dating this guy named Andy for three and a half years. We went to high school together and had mutual friends, but we didn’t officially meet until my first day of college in a photography class. I sat in front of him and we couldn’t stop looking at each other in the reflection of our iMacs, but neither of us caught each other in the act. We have literally been inseparable since the first time we spoke to each other. He is my best friend. My rock. I am absolutely head over heels in love with the kid, and you’ll often read about him on my blog. Deal with it. 

I have a wonderful, supportive family (my own and Andy’s) and lovely, free-spirited friends who I enjoy sharing my life with. They all help me keep my head up when I can’t seem to do it on my own, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without any of them and their encouragement.
