In 2005 I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill with a degree in Political Science and Economics. I graduated with an MBA from Campbell University in the fall of 2009. My vice’s include Espresso, Red Wine, Dark Chocolate, Whiskey and Good Greens.  I am a life long athlete who enjoys the disciplines of running, cycling, swimming, yoga, juggling and stretching. My artistic interests include oil painting, pen and ink on cotton rag, found objects of art, sculptural works inclusive of carving cement and wood, as well as printmaking mediums.
