About

I’ve been a writer and artist for as long as I can remember; it started as escapism and a way to make sense of the world, and gradually became a lifelong practice spanning short fiction, poetry, academic writing, and visual art. My work draws from dreams and the subconscious, the natural world, personal memory, and the quiet beauty I find in ordinary moments. Philosophy and academia ground me, but I’m always pulled toward the imaginative, toward the edge where the real starts to blur into the surreal. That in-between is where my work feels most alive.

Artist Statement

My work lives where reality starts to soften. Through short fiction, poetry, and visual art, I explore the line between the everyday and the surreal: the moment before the familiar becomes strange. I’m drawn to whimsy not as escape, but as a lens: a way of looking at the world sideways to see it more clearly.
