A PLACE FOR IDEAS

Welcome to my creative corner of the internet, where art, animation, and music live side by side. If you’re here, you’re either lost, curious, or slightly invested in what I do. Either way, thanks for stopping by.

Originally from Minnesota, I’m now based in Chicago, shaping a creative career rooted in storytelling and expression. No matter the medium, I aim to make things that connect and stay with people.

HOW I THINK ABOUT ART

I’m into exploring, trying new things, and making stuff that feels different. Art should surprise, challenge, or capture your interest.

Whether it’s a drawing, a sound, or an idea that woke me up at 3 a.m., I want my work to feel like something, impactful, fun, and even surreal at times.

CURRENT EXPIRIMENTS

Right now, I’m developing an animated series, building in 3D, and testing ways to merge movement with textures. I’m also diving into music and interactive storytelling, each project giving me new tools to work with and fresh ways to create.

WHERE I’M HEADED

The goal? Make something unforgettable. Whether that’s an animated show, a painting people stand in front of for way too long, or a song that gets stuck in someone’s head for days. I’m not interested in picking one lane. If the idea’s good, I’m chasing it, no GPS needed.

LET’S CHAT

I’m always open to conversations with other creatives. I may not have time for deep dives into process, but if you want to share work, swap ideas, or say hey, I’m here for it.

Thanks for stopping by, keep creating.
