Michelle was born and raised in Northern Virginia just outside of Washington, DC. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts: Sculpture degree from George Mason University in 2021.

 

She is currently a candidate in the Master of Fine Arts graduate program at James Madison University where she has completely immersed herself into the process of creating while building her art practice. 

 

Ultimately, Michelle wishes to teach, thus, bringing her love of art to the wider community and perhaps offering some degree of the same type of therapeutic benefits that she believes art holds
for everyone.
