I am a self taught fiber artist born and raised in Baltimore City. My body of work includes portraits, free form and wearable art all crocheted and knitted by hand. My art was born from my battle with depression around my son’s autism diagnosis. The work simultaneously offered a financial means to pay for services and treatment with sensory therapy. In my daily life, crafting has created a spirit of inclusion, imagination and freedom. It is my goal to help others the way it has saved us.
