I was born and raised in San Jose, CA. My upbringing had its highs and lows, but I've learned from my mistakes and strive to better myself in all I do. I am a proud husband and father, currently residing in Las Vegas, NV.

I love creating art. I paint in both acrylics and oils and make my own frames. Although my focus is on the aesthetics of my work, I'd like for my technical ability to be a little more refined before I transition into pieces that are a little more personal and expressive.

My goal is for my work to convey emotion yet be visually pleasing. Those two qualities can easily conflict one another, but I think it's important to find the balance.
