about my work

My present creative focus is the active, ever-changing nature of living matter. I am fascinated by the intricacy and fragility of tissue, the repetition of patterns across scales, and the continuous churning currents that animate all lifeforms past and present. As I pursue a research career focusing on zoology, evolution, and comparative imaging, I intend to filter my scientific experience into visual expressions of biological complexity.

about me

I was born and raised in Atlanta, and will be staying there as I start a Biology Ph.D. at Georgia Tech. I graduated in 2025 from Stanford University, where I majored in Biology, minored in Art Practice, and completed a capstone program in science communication. I am planning to pursue a career in During college, I conducted research at both Georgia Tech and Stanford. Much of my science communication work has been through web design, specifically building two websites for Stanford Comparative Medicine about laboratory animal welfare (Beyond3Rs, Mouse Ethogram). Along with researching and making art, I like to play guitar, cook and bake, garden, and be in nature.
