About this.

In my work, I play with the balance between defining and withholding so that images are traces of untold narratives, inviting viewers to imagine the narratives themselves.

I studied English language & literature and Art at the University of Chicago. I read slowly, look closely, and love storytelling. I live and work in Chicago.
