i am a philadelphia based screenwriter and senior attending drexel university.
my work explores themes of queer identity, intimacy, cycles of violence, trauma and perception. i'm inspired by internet aesthetics, psychological and body horror, and my lived experience as a neurodiverse queer femme. i make art for cool weird girls and their associates.
when i'm not on the drexel grind, my hobbies include tarot, collage art and doting obsessively upon my two cats.
