Charleston has shaped the way I see color, texture, and community. Living on the coast, I’m constantly inspired by the marshes, seabirds, and native botanicals that surround me. Those influences naturally find their way into my work, whether I’m painting coastal subjects like herons and sea fans or creating abstract pieces that capture the movement and atmosphere of the Lowcountry.

After moving to Charleston from Amelia Island, Florida, three years ago, I was welcomed into a vibrant and supportive community that has played a meaningful role in my growth as an artist. At 25, I feel incredibly grateful to be building my career in a city that has embraced and encouraged young creatives, opening doors I never imagined and connecting me with collectors, galleries, and collaborators who value original, locally made artwork.

Today, I’m proud to be represented by Charleston Artist Collective and Grand Bohemian Gallery Charleston, and to have my work featured through Serena & Lily. Being part of Charleston’s creative community has not only shaped my career but continues to inspire the work I create every day.
