About Me

I have lived between Northern California & Northern Nevada all of my life and currently reside in Reno, NV. When in wine country, I worked in tasting rooms while earning B.A. degrees in both Art History and Painting from Sonoma State University.

As a response to the 2017 wild fires in Sonoma and Napa Counties, I created the Firestorm Mosaic project and worked exclusively on that series for one year. In turn, that experience inspired me to create contemporary mixed-media mosaics.

My current broken heart series reflects the grief that we all experience over the course of our lives. When our hearts break, they are forced to expand - leaving empty voids. It is possible to grow beautifully within these gaps as the scar tissues heal and become a permanent part of us. From a technical perspective, I enjoy having a focused concept that allows me to experiment with color combinations and a variety of materials.
