I was born in North Carolina and spent most of my early life growing up in Salisbury.
I graduated Jesse C. Carson High School with Honors through the Fine Arts Academy Program in 2016. I earned an AFA from Rowan-Cabarrus Community College in 2018. I transferred to University of North Carolina at Asheville in the Fall of 2018. I am currently enrolled at University of North Carolina at Asheville in the BFA Program. |
