About

The drive to create has been with me for as long as I can remember. Over the years it has taken many forms—drawing, painting, photography, and even designing dresses and costumes for my children and grandchildren. That creative impulse has always been a constant.

While raising a family and building a career in IT project management, my art moved quietly into the background. I later completed my Bachelor of Arts in Fine Art and, more recently, studied with Nickolas Wilton through his Creative Visionary Program (CVP), an experience that deeply reawakened my commitment to painting.

Today, I find myself fully returned to the creative path. I spend part of the year on Long Beach Island, New Jersey, where coastal light, shifting weather, and shoreline textures inform much of my work. Photography continues to shape the way I observe the world and influences how I translate those impressions into paint.

With a dedicated home studio now in place, I am embracing this next chapter with curiosity and anticipation—eager to see where the work leads.
