Where your

reality ends,

my

imagination begins.

I am a New Jersey-based self-taught multidisciplinary artist, born with an insatiable artistic spirit and an endless thirst to explore, aspire, and create. My artistic journey began as soon as I could hold a pencil, but it was the gift of a beautifully illustrated children’s Bible that truly ignited my passion and captivated my imagination. That moment has traveled with me, fueling my passion ever since.

The vibrant colors and enchanting illustrations became a lasting memory and inspired me to dream of becoming an artist, setting me on a lifelong path in art.

With limited resources and poor-quality supplies, I began painting with my mother’s old nail polish brushes. I was deeply in love with Art, even in a world that didn’t easily accept that as a valuable future choice, offering little to no encouragement. My love for it never wavered.

After years of practice I start selling portraits in my town and eventually earned enough to purchase my first set of quality paint brushes.

In a world that often stifles creativity, being an artist felt like a rebellion. Yet, to me it was always a "crime" worth committing - a pursuit misunderstood by those around me, labeled as failure before it even began. There was a time when I lost motivation and turned to my education instead. I paused my artistic pursuits to focus on my education, earning a Master’s Degree in Business Law and Administration from the Police Academy. Upon graduation, it was clear that I was expected to pursue a "real career job," even though my heart longed for something else. I didn’t want a full-time or part-time position that would keep me occupied and distant from my dreams. I tried to conform, but I realized that I have an intolerance for a life that doesn't sparkle. I crave magic and demand a life I love, which are perfectly reasonable desires.

I scrolled through thousands of job listings, applying to hundreds of positions, all the while knowing they weren’t what I truly wanted. I couldn't accept that the rest of my life would primarily involve working for someone else. Despite giving various jobs a try, my passion for art remained unwavering. Ultimately, I chose to embrace my artistic path, eager to tell my story through the fluent and eloquent language of my heart - Art.

In pursuit of my dreams, I moved to Switzerland, where I created and sold my first original oil and acrylic paintings. From Switzerland to Italy, Paris to Belgium, and finally to the United States, my aspirations and dreams have reached the pinnacle of my passion. The search for my path continued, as it is not the destination but the meticulous journey that matters. A journey that is endlessly amazing and challenging, leading me to discover the unknown parts of myself through each piece I create.

I entered the art world when the time felt right and remain confident in my choice, often reflecting on it as "The chaotic grandeur of my life’s journey."

I strongly believe that without hard work, determination, practice, discipline, and a desire for self-improvement, talent remains dormant.

I love creating various forms of art, from sculpture and painting to refurbishing pieces that hold unique stories. I cherish portraits, abstracts, religious art, fantasy figuratives, and landscapes, but especially enjoy breathing new life into old artifacts - turning them into Unique Artistic Treasures for their unheard stories should be told.

Art and I are inseparable, it seamlessly mends every broken piece of me and I cannot imagine life without it.

I am profoundly grateful for where I am today and for you, the one reading my story, supporting my dream, my passion, my business and my work that I love so much.

Your home is where your heart is, my home is where my art is.
