Art has always been a part of my life. From a young age, it was how I expressed myself, processed emotions, and connected with the world around me. Creating never felt like a hobby to me… it felt like a part of who I was.

I went on to earn my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design with a minor in Marketing and built a career in the creative field, balancing design professionally while continuing to paint personally. What started as creating meaningful pieces for family and friends slowly grew into something much bigger through the encouragement and support of others who connected with my work.

Over the years, life has changed in ways I never could have imagined. After losing both my mom and dad and later becoming a mother myself to two beautiful children, I stepped into a season of life that reshaped me completely. During that time, painting became quieter, but creativity never left me. Art remained something steady… a place I could return to through grief, growth, healing, and rediscovery.

Today, my work carries even more meaning than it once did. It reflects emotion, memory, motherhood, resilience, and the beauty found within life’s imperfect seasons. I’ve learned that creativity evolves alongside us, and sometimes the most meaningful art comes from the chapters that change us the most.

This version of me may look different than it once did, but art will always be a part of my story.
