Doing what I love

In 2025 I got laid off from my job in healthcare, and I chose to see it as an opportunity to pursue work I truly enjoy. My true passions have always been the arts, and I have dabbled to various mediums my whole life. A few years back I fell in love with watercolor, and am so excited to share my paintings with others.

Based in the Pacific Northwest, I am inspired by the natural beauty around me, from the flowers I see on my morning walks, to the sweeping views of mountains and rivers that is the reward for a long hike. I am also fortunate enough to have traveled the world, and take inspiration from my photos and memories of these trips. There’s something special about taking a cherished core memory or experience, and capturing it with paint and ink. It keeps the feelings and memories alive and sparkling. This is what I aim to achieve with every piece.
