I

About

I am a sculptor working primarily with steel, rope, and cast metal. My practice investigates how bodily and structural systems endure when damage is permanent—how form adapts, reorganizes, and continues to function under ongoing stress.

My work is grounded in material behavior rather than narrative illustration. Through processes of twisting, binding, casting, and segmentation, I treat materials as analogues for systems under strain: structures that do not return to an original state, but instead develop new modes of support. Digital tools such as modeling and 3D printing are used instrumentally, integrated into traditional fabrication and casting processes.

I am currently pursuing an MFA in Sculpture at the University of Dallas. I hold a BFA in Art and Technology from the University of Oklahoma. Prior professional experience outside the studio informs my attention to labor, endurance, and material consequence, though the work itself resists direct representation.

My sculptures range from intimate objects to public installations and are intended to be encountered physically—through proximity, scale, and weight—rather than read symbolically.
