AMBITIONS I would like to be a professor of Fine Art and Painting. My
goal is to provide a mindset for future artists and students of the arts with the necessary, but often forlorn, instruction on the importance of discipline through a craft.
I want to guide
minds through the process of surviving a career as an artist, and prepare them for the steps they have to take.
At some point I would like to have a role in curating a gallery. I want to provide for my family, and to be able to give back to all those that were able to provide for me in the past. I want to learn something new everyday, and to actively be a better person then I was the day before. in the future

STUDIO Selections from my private studio practice. The themes of the work revolve around Kairos, an ancient Greek concept of “the supreme moment� - a decisive pause amid chaos to seize control of your environment. My work focuses on the tense seconds before, the shattered silence after, and the psychology in the instant of action.
