Artist statement

Growing up and living in Los Angeles I appreciate how the city weaves together a multitude of heritages & cultures.  I try to capture this in my art, by piecing together materials that represent the wonderfully diverse communities of LA.

Creating with found objects is a passion of mine. Once useful items-many were loved and cherished-somehow were discarded and forgotten along the way. Re-discovery, resurrection-rebirth-it is a journey with no end-just new beginnings.
