My practice is interdisciplinary, engaging printmaking, painting, sculpture, ceramics, drawing, and photography to investigate the intersections of material culture, memory, and community. My process begins with photographs of homes, furnishings, community spaces, and portraits of people in their environments, which serve as primary source material. These images are then translated into tactile forms such as prints, ceramics, paintings, and sculptural works, allowing me to explore how meaning shifts across material and scale. Working in multiple mediums strengthens my research by letting me approach the same subject from different vantage points, layering imagery, surface, and texture to highlight the functional and symbolic dimensions of objects.

My work is rooted in my interest in the everyday materials that hold memory and shape our sense of belonging. I am drawn to objects that are often overlooked, items that are inexpensive, familiar, or easily accessible yet deeply embedded with experience. A plastic chair is not just a chair; it is where someone sat to braid hair on a porch, where an elder rested, where a friend took his shoes off after work, where a child climbed and played. A red solo cup carries the imprint of hands that held it, the echoes of conversation, and the residue of shared moments. These objects witness life as it unfolds, becoming vessels for memory, culture, and care. Through my practice, I examine how these materials participate in the stories of communities, revealing the connections between people, objects, and the spaces they inhabit
