Informed by her eclectic experiences as a drag performer, archivist, nanny, and freelancer in New York, her work explores the prismatic abstraction of the self and its potential to reveal intuitive circuits of interconnection between individuals and within one’s personal history. Existing between glitch and glamour, the material and immaterial, and the mythical and mundane, collaboration is essential to her practice. She’s presented work at Brooklyn Art Haus, Grace Exhibition Space, New Art Ways, Judson Memorial Church, and La Mama Experimental Theatre Club. 

Featured in Rachel Rampleman’s “Life is Drag” exhibition in 2025, she is a 2026 artist in residence at SoMad. In June, she curated “So Mad, So Queer,” SoMad’s annual pride event, with a delectable assortment of nightlife tastemakers. For the Fall 2026 season, she will present “Pleasure Dome,” her recurring experimental variety show, in its first ever multi-night run exploring the radical pursuit of pleasure in all its multiplicity. Open wide!

She received a BFA in Design History and Practice from Parsons School of Design in 2023.
