The first collage I made was in 2017, I was 16 years old.

A loving friend at the time (Shoutout Elizabeth Doversola!) shared that she envisioned me creating them, which opened my eyes to the possibility and encouraged me to explore the medium.

​

Since then, collage making has exposed me to people, places, and 'worlds' that I would not have had access to prior. [Teleportation]

​​

It's given me courage to explore, examine, and express my emotions when they've felt too heavy to hold. [Super Strength]

Being surrounded by photos, words, and ideas in the creative process is one of my favorite places to be.
