B.S. Graphic Communications Management, 1988

When I was young, I always knew I wanted to pursue a career in the creative field. After college, my professional work in publishing and graphic design was a great launching point for me. I found satisfaction and success in communicating ideas for others through my work.

Now, I have reached an exciting place in my artistic vision. The experiences I have had over the past 25 years have created a desire to communicate my own messages. I have a great many things I want to say. I have traveled extensively, married, raised four children, in addition to educating myself further about art history and improving my technical skills. I am ready to begin to tell my own stories through my paintings.

I have so many thoughts about the world and our delicate place in it. Reflecting on my life experiences as a woman, particularly as a mother and daughter, I want to share these ideas with a broad audience.
