I am a painter, textile artist and teacher based on the beautiful Northern California Coastline.

Originally from Southern California, I have also had the privilege of living in Hawai‘i, Pennsylvania, Florida, British Columbia and Nova Scotia. Each place I have lived has formed a bit of who I am and the aesthetics I am drawn to. I have painted for as long as I can remember and received my BFA in drawing and painting from the University of Hawai‘i. I continued graduate studies at Regent College in Vancouver, BC, where I focused on the interplay of faith, creativity and the arts.
