My exposure to art has been since a child through my late mom she made certain I was aware from taking me to museums to Hair shows and hair care brands conferences and tours throughout my home State of Pennsylvania. So yes, it’s been from family to friends and these were social activities as well as my personal explorations. I have had a fascination of building architecture, especially of homes throughout Philadelphia area. From the choices of awnings, window panels frames and constructions also placements of landscape. Now that I am here in the DMV, I’m most impressed through the downtown Washington, DC area. The stories of “The WHY’s” of their constructions and the laborers who were a part of their assemblies. Yes, I make our same as my mom as a cosmetologist and she was a teacher as well. The mediums I use is hair. Obviously my style is the interpretive type of style. My audience is the person who wears their hair in their community and environment. I also wanted to make visual art as far as a motive.
My exposure to art began in childhood, thanks to my late mother. She made it a point to immerse me in artistic experiences — from visits to museums and hair shows to attending hair care brand conferences and tours across our home state of Pennsylvania. These experiences were more than just events — they were family bonding moments, social outings with friends, and early sparks of my personal exploration into the world of art.
One area that has always fascinated me is architecture, particularly residential buildings throughout the Philadelphia area. I’ve been drawn to the creative decisions behind awnings, window frames, panel placements, and how landscaping complements the structure. Now, living in the DMV area, I continue that curiosity with a growing admiration for downtown Washington, DC — especially the stories behind the architecture: the “whys” behind each construction, and the laborers and communities involved in bringing these buildings to life.
Like my mother, I am a cosmetologist, and I consider my medium to be hair. She was not only a stylist but also a teacher, and that legacy continues through me. My artistic style is interpretive, shaped by the individuality of each person I work with. The audience for my art is the person wearing their hairstyle — someone who exists within a particular community and environment, carrying that style as part of their identity and story.
Beyond hair, I’m also drawn to visual art as a form of motivation and storytelling. I aspire to explore that realm further, using my eye for form, rhythm, and spatial design to create art that speaks to culture, place, and personal expression.
