Actively expanding knowledge and experience
Studying fine arts at Edinboro University, then shifting to the field of psychology at Point Park University informs the open and excited approach I enter with each new project. My education and life experiences has been the building blocks for the active, artists lifestyle I choose to live. This expresses itself through my dancing spirit. To choose to pursue art and expression in a professional environment is to choose to live fully and purely.
As of 2023, I have been pursuing a degree in art therapy at Penn West Edinboro. Art Therapy is an extension of my most authentic self as a career choice. Currently I keep an art studio at a recovery home dedicated to women, assisting visiting artists along their five week courses. This allows me to be a cheerleader for healing and a lover of art.
I have forged a daily art practice, where I often employ my philosophy of “start stupid”. Emphasis on the start. I relish in the innocent sensation of materials mending and molding through the movements I make. It is a practice of agency and letting go. Often I cover canvases over day after day, allowing the image to exist, then allowing it to transform. It is power and it is mine for the taking.
Airsign Studios has started as an umbrella to hold the many projects and endeavors my Gemini spirit leads.
