A graduate of the David Lynch MFA in Screenwriting program, she is a painter first before finding a path in film. Her acrylic on canvas works combine multiple visual textures and contrasting viewpoints in one image, often mixing 3D and super-flat clip-art elements, laboriously, completely hand-done, addressing the over-informed, ultra-produced digital landscape of the modern world while preserving the process and practice of traditional painting. As a writer, she aims towards salty and sweet, embracing her love for horror and rom-coms, the surreal and nostalgic, to push the boundaries of expectation and dissect the essence of the human condition with a dash of optimism. Her time at CalArts fortified her conceptual awakening under the guidance of the late Michael Asher, a prominent figure in Modern Art history, celebrated as the patron saint of Institutional Critique, and artist, writer, and current co-director of the CalArts Program in Art, as well as a critic in the Yale School of Art sculpture program, Leslie Dick.
