I make artwork that respects and is influenced by the natural world. I recognize the balance between humans and nature. The materials I choose to use are responsibly mined, collected, and purchased. I use borosilicate glass, silver, and gold to create artwork. The glass is made using an oxygen propane torch. It is kiln annealed overnight. All components are handmade and formed. The glass gives me the opportunity to recreate the colors of the sea, sky, flora, and fauna. Glass lets me experiment with gradations of colors and textures that I find in nature around me.

My artwork is about discovering. My hope is that my works of art influence others to be informed about the environment and its issues and recognize the balance between humans and nature. I make art to draw attention to environmental issues. I want people to find a piece of my art that inspires them and makes them reflect on a memory from a past experience or adventure.
