I am most passionate about creating sentimental pieces for others. I love to work on commissions of cherished memories.

I am originally from the suburbs outside of Philadelphia. I attended Boston University, College of Fine Arts, and I graduated with a BFA in painting and a minor in History of Art and Architecture. During my time at BU, I studied abroad in Venice, Italy, where I attended the Scuola Internazionale di Grafica. In Venice, I started to explore my relationship with food through my art, and this exploration continues through my work today. Growing up in an Italian-American household, I felt my whole world could be found at a crowded kitchen table. This food was an expression of love, drama, and beauty. For me, a still life of an Italian pastry tray or a tableau of the traditional seven-fish dinner evokes memories and visceral emotions more immediately than any landscape ever could.

After graduation, I worked at an interactive media design company in the sales and marketing department. I then worked for a popular online retailer as a Sales Manager in the Business to Business department where I serviced only Interior Designers. Although I enjoyed working with my team and helping Interior Designers achieve their artistic vision, I decided to pursue my own artistic passions in 2021!
