Eager to create everything from abstract mixed media pieces and contemporary portraits to pattern designs and upcycled tins, Jo considers her work to be led by an internal "art roulette." With unending curiosity and an unwillingness to commit to one subject or style, she challenges her creative boundaries and assumptions whenever she can for the sake of making art that evokes subjective, emotional reaction.
Jo graduated from Mount St. Mary's University with a BA in Fine Art, after studying fine art and film at the Carver Center for Arts & Technology in Towson, MD, and has recently rediscovered her passion for art after leaving the corporate marketing world in 2019. Experiencing the beginning of the pandemic while pregnant rekindled her artistic practice, as well as her appreciation for art as a safe outlet with which to filter a growing awareness and anxiety of the unknown.
