I was born and raised in a small Northern New York town. Living in an area with little to do, I turned to art, specifically drawing and painting. Throughout high school, there were art shows and awards for my work which led me to a Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Arts with a focus on drawing. During college, I discovered I had more of a love for set building and prop making than I did for drawing. So when the pandemic began, I figured a Master’s Degree wouldn’t hurt if I wanted to turn this into a career.

As I learned the filmmaking process and I was able to refine my skills and learn new ones in the realm of production design and prop making. I have become a jack of all trades or have at least some experience with a wide variety of materials and techniques. 

I have found my passion and constantly work at learning new things so I can be the best at what I do.
