I have degrees in both Studio Art and Art Education. I enjoy teaching in schools, from 2000 until present day.

 

With certificates in Trauma-Informed Expressive Arts Level One and Nature Based Expressive Arts from the Trauma-Informed Practices and Expressive Arts Therapy Institute, I use art to help others. We use art to reconnect to the "real us".

​

Creativity allows me to be my own best friend. I use the arts to collect my inner thoughts. I draw, write and immerse myself into nature. I move my body. This process keeps me closest to my spirit and keeps my energy in flow.

​

My practice takes form in art journals, paintings, and other mixed media projects while incorporating all of my senses.

My purpose is to bring consciousness into creativity.

 

That is the intention I bring to workshops I facilitate. Bringing people together for a shared experience

creates connection, and allows us to see we are not alone. We see our truth mirrored back to us in our art. We can unleash our fullest expression. I hold true that creativity is our way back to our true selves. We are Souls. You bring your own magic and your own anwers within. I will see you in class.
