About


I am a sophomore majoring in illustration at the Rhode Island School of Design, originally from New Jersey. My passion for art has been a constant presence in my life since early childhood. My creative endeavors are deeply rooted in my experiences as a woman of color and exploring themes of girlhood and womanhood.

Specializing in children's book illustration and narrative-based imagery, I primarily work with gouache while also cherishing the expressive possibilities of acrylics and markers.
