My art has always explored the human experience and has been a place where I express when there are no words. After noticing this in my undergraduate studies, I went on to complete my MS in Art Therapy and have spent most of my adult life helping others use art to express and cope with the affects of trauma. My work is a place to process what I witness as an art therapist and what I experience as a human. I work in variety of mediums but the bulk of my work is in acrylic paint and ceramic sculpture.
