I work in multiple mediums with a consistent focus on sound & music composition, video installation, and drawing.

I embrace open improvisation and the automatic and I tend toward the use of found materials, basic mark making, and exploratory recording, filming, and editing methods.

While I am drawn to high-drama storytelling and artwork with a palpable emotional core, I am also enthusiastic about abstraction and broken narratives. These impulses and inputs have led to live-stream video play performances featuring miniatures, improvisational multitrack recording series, and reclaimed cereal.

I am motivated by the desire to connect with viewers’ sense of longing, loss, hope, humor, and injustice.
