She immersed herself in the rich and colorful lifestyle of Silver City, N.M. after moving to New Mexico, studying the methods in which people may communicate and connect despite their differences. Now pursuing a BFA in Ceramics alongside a minor in English and Biology, she seeks to understand the networks that link people through the fine arts.
