Goals and interests
- Career goal
As an emerging artist, my hope is to continue to show my work and to gain additional recognition for my art within my community, nationally and internationally. I am fortunate to have already displayed in the U.S. Congress as a 2014 winner of the Congressional art competition for the 2nd district of Chicago, and to have my art displayed at a local gallery, Gallery Guichard. Eventually, I would like to own and operate my own gallery featuring my work and the work of other emerging artists.
- Graduate school interests
I would like to pursue my M.F.A. in Fine Arts after graduation from College.
