How did you start your career as a multidisciplinary artist?
I've always been creating and playing with different mediums from a young age but probably my first year out of college and living in the city. Would push Zines, silver jewelry, clothing and would work on various fabrication/ set design jobs. All until maybe 3 years ago when I started focusing on working/ selling my personal work which encapsulates a bit of all the mediums I've worked within thus far.
Do you have a favorite piece that you've created?
I'd Have to say my Yankee Hat chair.
What’s your favorite part about the New York creative community?
That it's fast and vast. There's a lot of creatives making cool shit, and a lot of ways to connect. The pace here is obviously quite fast, so it makes collaborating and the hustle of getting things done a bit easier than other places. Plus there's an abundance of spaces to show, see work, and work with.
