Since receiving my BA in English from the University of Dallas in 2006, I have worked for Emil Frei Stained Glass in Saint Louis. I have spent the last three years restoring, cutting, and designing stained glass across the country with Emil Frei. When not working on projects for our clients, I continue to further my own art.

My work concerns the relationship between geometry and the natural form. I place natural images within a geometric framework, creating a harmony of forms. Composition is geometrical, and organic images break into abstraction. The slope of a hill, the twist in a twig; the angle at which a tree raises, where its branches extend, and where it has a knot—these details invite contemplation. My images are precise and deliberate: I combine realism with aberrations into the imaginative.
