My work is inspired by the macabre, gothic, and the fantastical. I’m compelled by stories exploring the question of what makes a monster monstrous. What are the things that can happen to a person that causes their humanity to twist and warp into something unrecognizable? I’m fascinated by stories of hauntings, of how the echoes of long past events affect the present day. I love exploring how these events and emotions can shape one’s relationship to the people and environment around them. I find the overlap between gothic romance and horror creates a perfect blend to investigate monstrosity and identity.
