Through my work I aim to bridge art and biology in a way that encourages others to view the natural world with a more curious and conscious eye. My personal work depicts intimate ecological portraits, often focusing on species interactions and cycles, and broadly explores fascinating natural phenomena. I particularly enjoy unearthing obscured elements - the overlooked consequences of anthropogenic effects or the unseen trajectories of evolutionary forces.

My studio is situated on the top of a small ridge just East of the beautiful Flint Hills of Kansas, where my family and I live. A self-taught artist, I spent my university years studying biology and creating scientific illustrations on the side. I now paint as much as possible, alongside teaching biology at my local university. I can otherwise be found tending to our large garden, playing fetch with our three pups, and going on little adventures with our son.
