hi there :)
I am a New York based multidisciplinary artist, with a primary focus on illustration and design. My creative practice extends to photography, videography, tattooing, music production, podcasting and writing.
Over the past several years, my project, The Shape of Sanctum, has been central to my creative growth. This endeavor blends digital and analog approaches across various mediums. The Shape of Sanctum also serves as the name of one of my music ventures, alongside a self-titled experimental-electronic project.
Currently, I work as a junior instructional designer and am pursuing a Master’s degree in Instructional Design and Technology at Commonwealth University. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies of Environmental Science and Philosophy, with a minor in Technical Writing, from the same institution.
My artwork has been published in Springer Forestry Science, as well as Philosophy Now, and I have shared my ideas at Cornell University’s Norman Kretzmann Undergraduate Philosophy Conference.
My photography is shot through the lens of a second-hand Canon Rebel T2I, while my illustrations are drawn using Micron pens, and my stick and poke tattooing is accomplished predominantly utilizing 5RL needles.
You can listen to my ideas on my podcast, The Impasse, and find my music here.
