My Guilty Pleasures
Alaska's Trains
I've been working on these trains for almost a decade. They are like my second home

The Honky Tonk and all! Well I am from Texas, it's not like I can help it!

Since both of my parents ride, they couldn't stop me from following in their footprints.
How it all Began...
When I was thirteen years old, I picked up a pencil for the first time to draw. It took me approximately seventeen years and fifteen days to realize I was crazy enough to move up to Alaska from Texas all on my own. Being homeschooled my whole life gave me the opportunity to do this while I was still in high school! Fast forward a few years, I found myself distracted by the hustle and bustle of the food industry. I worked as a server, bartender, and cook all on the train, but never really as an artist. However, when the covid pandemic first began, I lost three jobs in one week. While at the time things did not seem to be going very well, it actually gave me an opportunity to explore my goals as an artist.
Where I'm at now!
In 2021 I graduated with honors and acquired my Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Anchorage Alaska. During the time I worked on the train, I was starstruck by so many inspirational train conductors, so much so that I decided to earn my very own license and hat. My passion for both art and the Alaska Railroad has led me on incredible journeys all around the state. Like wheels against the rail, I leave sparks of creativity in multiple galleries and gift shops. I am entirely grateful for the opportunities life has given me, but nothing beats the opportunity for me to connect with people and share my passions for art. I'd love to connect with you and share my love for art with you! Feel free to message me and
