"I have a deep passion for Burlesque, cabaret, and interactive theatre. The work I create is often juxtaposed agains the beautiful and bizarre. My work challenges social constructs that dictate gender expectations, blurs lines between the masculine and the feminine and prompts audiences to challenge their idea of what is classically beautiful"
