My practice explores how environments are shaped through acts of care, adaptation, and reciprocity. It focuses on how attachments to place, and its enduring presences or absences, impact its history and our longing. My paintings consider how spatial and social fabrics intersect and unfold through ongoing processes of negotiation and renewal. After training in architecture and urban design, I completed an MFA at the California Institute of the Arts.
