I am an artist and metalsmith from Raleigh, North Carolina. I completed my BFA with a concentration in metalsmithing and jewelry design from Appalachian State University. From 2017-2019, I participated in the two year Core Fellowship at Penland School of Craft. I explore different processes, often incorporating ceramics, drawing, painting, and collage into my work, while maintaining and specializing a practice in metal. I am currently based in Baltimore, Maryland where I work to manage the Baltimore Jewelry Center, a non-profit jewelry educational space.
