I am happiest when bringing my imagination to life in my studio with whatever inspires me in the moment. I am repeatedly drawn to vintage and time-worn items and thrill at the hunt for materials in flea markets, antique shops, thrift stores, and garage sales. I particularly love using doll parts and wings in my work.

Rarely do I start a project with a particular design in mind. Instead, my approach is organic and primarily spontaneous. A new project often begins with rummaging through my studio for inspiration. Fun happens as I play with various ideas, adding and rearranging materials while thinking through any construction challenges. The final assemblage invites the viewer to consider everyday objects with a new perspective and hopefully results in a smile.
