I am a Chicago based artist and illustrator, and I received my MFA from the University of Chicago in 2012. I received my BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2010, and I am represented by the Ann Nathan Gallery here in Chicago. My personal drawings and paintings are inspired by dream scenarios which play out my real life anxieties. Illustration is something else I am very interested in, I even consider my personal work a kind of illustration. Recently I illustrated promotional material for the Illinois Humanities Council, which can be viewed in situ here: http://www.prairie.org/programs/road-scholars-speakers-bureau/bios/162
