I made this couch for my spatial dynamics class during my first semester back at RISD. The prompt was to make something that can fir 2 or more people, I made something that can seat 2-9 people. I made it in 2 weeks start to finish all handmade. I didn't really do accurate measurements or anything, it was mostly by eye and just a step by step learning process. It has around 40 pounds of fiber filling, it's essentially just an oversized pillow. Made in November 2018.
LUV; a concept by me for women to freely express them selfs in whichever way or form they please. I've always been infatuated by women my whole life, they really dominate the world. I feel like lately social media and our generation has corrupt us to think women need to be held to a specific standard to be socially acceptable. We need to look, act, and live a certain way just to please others. Women should be able to be comfortable being the person they are with out people being judge mental. I got 14 of my wonderful friends of all different sizes, age, and ethnicity to come together and let me create something amazing. This was hands down the most fun project I've ever worked on, all of us just hanging out and helping each other was such a positive atmosphere. The most important thing is to love yourself the way you are. Made in July 2017. Special Thanks to the photographer Therry Michel-Basquiat, and my friends/models Luna Ayala, Aura, Kalie Boyne, 300 Dalyn, (Ming) P. Phomsouvannady, Jaliyah, Tierah Harrison, Breanna, Stefanie, Cat Queen, Gabriella Richie, Aja Arian, Sunshine Destiny, and Florence Ashamu.

4’ x 8’ plywood panels that were displayed at PVD Field Day in 2017. I would like to give a special thanks to my friends who helped me paint this <3
Scans of some pages out of my sketchbook. I made this book when I was around 15 and took me two years to finish when I was 17. I made this book for display purposes because I wanted to be able to put a whole book on the wall and have every piece be something to view. There are many more pages but I did not scan all of it. This piece as a whole book is very personal to me and a true introduction to getting to know my mind. Made in 2015-2017.
This will always and forever be my favorite painting I’ve ever made. A 30” x 30” canvas I painted in less than a day. Made in 2016.
