I graduated from Tabor College with a Bachelor of Arts in graphic design and a minor in psychology. I enjoy designing processes that challenge my critical and creative mind.

I taught myself photography with a special interest in black and white. Photography continues to be an outlet for self-expression and personal development. I combine my design studies with photography capturing common themes that are abstract, geometrical, and the realities of life. My photographic work has garnered some recognition, earning acceptance in notable galleries such as the Leedy-Voulkous Art Center, Cape Cultural Art Center, and Exhibizone.

My parents inspired me to learn numismatics during my childhood beginning with the Statehood Quarters Program. It continues to be an inspiring and nostalgic hobby, driven by the cultural narratives embedded in coins and currency. My collection also includes foreign currencies from countries I have visited.
