Welcome!
IWU Runway Show 12/24
What brought you here?
Maybe you want to see some art. Awesome! I’ve made a lot over the years, if less recently due to college. To view the archive, click here or head to the “artwork” page.
Maybe you’re interested in reading a young adult’s writing. Uh… interesting choice when you could be reading something far more worthwhile like Malcolm Gladwell’s Talking to Strangers or Charles Duhigg’s Supercommunicators, or (let me plug a friend) Don Wettrick’s Pure Genius, but in the unlikely case you do, click here and navigate to the “blog” page.
Maybe you want to collaborate! That’s exciting! While I have plenty left to learn, I do know a thing or two to share, and would love to share them! To schedule and see workshops, lessons, and speaking events, visit the “events” page. I look forward to meeting you!
Bit about me
Cardboard Club 4/25
Let’s sum it up with: I have a lot of ideas and opinions that I want to share well, so I practice my writing and try to read widely.
My thoughts tend to revolve around art, so I enjoy relaying them here in writing and image. I also enjoy video games, entrepreneurship, philosophy, communication theory, and having genuinely enjoyable conversations with complete strangers and closest friends alike.
Whatever I decide to do, I tend to do it to an extreme. Is it good to struggle settling? We' shall see.
Why a blog?
Wildcat Summer Academy 7/24
What good is creativity if it isn’t shared? While art may always remain a hobby for me (with the occassional commission for friends and family), I can still share it with the world through a website. Sure, social media can be a fantastic outlet, but I can control more aspects of and be more consistent on a website here than I can with the ever-changing platforms out there.
As a 19 year old, I’ve got a bit of knowledge, but so much more to learn. This is a place I can share my interests and experiences in visual arts; past, present and predictive.
