About The Artist

Currently a visual arts major at the Alexander W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts in South Florida. I am looking forward to entering college next year and being able to further my research in both of my passions: art and animal science. I plan on majoring in some sort of Animal Biology where I can take classes in Animal Science, Marine Biology and Ecology, and Environmental Conservation, while also doing a double major in Art and/or French. I am an active tennis player, as well as an equestrian, participating in may competitions. I am also an artist; as a Senior, school can be really stressful so my art is my favorite thing to do to de-stress and make me feel better. I also consider myself as a conservationist after going on a study abroad program in Costa Rica and witnessing first hand the devastating effects that we have on wildlife and their environment.  

As a child I loved my Crayola markers, my red plastic easel and all arts and crafts. I kept animal journals with sketches and “research” on the animals I encountered on my daily excursions as well as those I only dreamed of seeing in person. My dream was to drive around in a big red pickup truck searching for animals in need and bring them back to my Rescue Ranch to help them. I planned on funding my Ranch by selling my sketches. Today, I hope to sell my paintings to help protect

the wild animals that I love so much.
