I've always been captivated by other worlds, absorbed by the idea of seeing and experiencing other worlds, not as an escape but as an education. You never know what you can't see, so how could I not wonder what I have yet to see? With research, careful documentation, and open-minded invention, worlds can be expressed with simple paper and pencil, but I want to use these tools and more to go beyond that and create worlds for others to physically experience themselves. 

​

I grew up practically living at the library when I wasn't adventuring with my siblings and parents. We could never go very far, but I learned early to appreciate every little experience and find wonder in every situation. You don't have to pay a lot to find new experiences. My love for reading, trying new things, and traveling as much as possible continues to this day.

​

I was introduced to the world of set design in high school stage crew where I helped build, tape, and paint sets, eventually set designing as well. Since then, I've also taken part in film and themed entertainment, while experimenting with new analog and digital mediums including VR, to better communicate my projects. 

​

My goal is to create immersive worlds for others to experience, believe, and enjoy.
