Describe your approach to teaching
My teaching approach focuses on inspiring students with the same enthusiasm I feel for the serendipitous and ever-changing nature of the landscape, which continuously provides inspiration.

What inspires your own work?
Nature’s beauty and raw persistence inspire me. I seek to express a fleeting, deep connection—where I feel immersed, alive, and embraced by the vast, open space I’ve created.
