“Art gives my life joy, purpose, and balance.”

About Me.

I’ve been making art for as long as I can remember. My mother, an artist herself, introduced me early on to the joy of creating. Our home was filled with tools, and materials, and the space to explore—art wasn’t something separate from daily life; it was part of it, shared, encouraged, and passed along generation to generation.

As an adult, while raising three children and building a corporate marketing career, I continued to carve out time for my creative work—often alongside other women balancing similar demands. As my children became more independent, I was able to return to the studio more fully as a potter, then a printmaker, and now as a painter.

While working in the corporate world I became aware and fascinated by the balance of left-brain and right-brain thinking and how it shapes us, particularly as women in the workplace. Logic and control, often labeled as “masculine,” coexist with empathy and collaboration, traditionally seen as “feminine.” In reality, we all carry some of both. We all land somewhere along the feminine–masculine continuum, no matter our gender. That blend—how we navigate it, resist it, or embrace it—shapes not only how we create, but how we show up as ourselves and with one another.
