"If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightening to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself.”
- Chuck Close

Born and raised in Eastern North Carolina in the little beach town of Emerald Isle, I grew up surrounded by a colorful cast of tourists, beach bums, and a large, whacky family. After spreading my wings and becoming a Tar Heel at UNC-Chapel Hill, I became "that" cousin with a Degrees in Journalism and Opera and began pursuing my passions of leadership, environmental awareness, and the arts. I am also an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church and doting plant dad.
My journey has taken me from hills of NC's Piedmont to the sunny parks of Walt Disney World Resort. Currently, I'm enjoying some cool mountain hikes while working as an Art Consultant in Asheville, NC. It's an exciting new adventure and I am lucky enough to be working with an exceptional team - helping build and maintain high-end client relations as they procure new pieces for their collections. At the same time, we are raising environmental awareness through the platform of artist Benjamin Walls. When I'm not at work you can find me hanging out with my friends, tending to my plants, or planning my next adventure.
