Throughout my life, art has been an integral part of my existence. I began taking art classes in elementary school, and in high school, I actively participated in competitions, receiving several awards and being selected to attend the Georgia Governor’s Honors Program. Despite my early affinity for art, I felt a compelling desire to pursue a degree in Registered Nursing. I dedicated eight years to practicing pediatric emergency nursing, but I felt as though I was neglecting a significant aspect of myself. I yearned for the exhilaration, fulfillment, and joy that come with creating fine art.

Despite continuing to practice full-time nursing, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery by enrolling in the Art Centre under the guidance of Chris diDomizio. For nearly five years while juggling nursing responsibilities and undergoing various life transformations, I continued to work in oil, pencil and charcoal.

In 2017, I chose to pursue art full time and it has been an exciting journey ever since.

When holding a pencil or a brush, I experience a profound awakening. I am captivated by the endless challenges of painting and the opportunity to convey a narrative through a likeness.

Beyond my artistic pursuits, I am also an avid traveler, eager to explore diverse cultures and engage in humanitarian endeavors.

I currently live in Houston, Texas with my husband and three children.
