I am a multi-disciplinary visual artist based in Tkaronto (Toronto), Ontario. My work ranges broadly in both subject and style, often incorporating text from song lyrics, book quotes, or my own writing. I love to create bold compositions, whether working in high contrast black and white, or vibrant colours. I often experiment with different mediums, although I am currently focused on block printing, collage, and zine making. I believe art is both political and personal, and I aim to use my artistic voice to stand up for what I care about, connect with others, and have fun.

My artistic aspirations include writing and illustrating kid's books and/or graphic novels, mural painting, and screen printing/embroidering on secondhand clothing.

I am grateful to live and work on the land of Tkaronto which is covered by Treaty 13 and The Williams Treaty, and has long been cared for by the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Wendat peoples. It is my responsibility as a settler to not only acknowledge the historical and present day consequences of colonization, but to fight for human rights, reparations, sovereignty, and justice, for Indigenous peoples across Turtle Island, and beyond. If you are a settler, learn more about the treaties and Indigenous peoples where you live at whose.land.
