I would describe my early upbringing and schooling as very multicultural. I was raised between Germany and the United States. When my father exited the military we settled in rural southern Louisiana. This culture shift has defined my life. I learned early on how to grease scalps and braid hair well enough to moonlight at my own mother’s hair salon. These will always be the core elements of my subject matter.
