This is who I create for: the individual willing to play a little, explore a lot, and be open to works that “come as they are” – visual and musical works that are just as likely to challenge as they are to comfort. I create for the me, because I must. I create for myself, for the individual, and to share in the wonder of it all.

She fulfilled her childhood dreams of being an artist and working with computers during her internship and subsequent position as a an editorial illustrator, graphic artist and graphic journalist at the largest local newspaper in Indiana, The Indianapolis Star and News (later the Indianapolis Star).
After 14 years within the newspaper world, she went on to delve into the culinary world, exploring the possibilities of pastry, cakes, and confections. Just prior to the pandemic her interest in food expanded to include grant-funded research and work to address food insecurity and promote food equity within Indianapolis food deserts.
Since the pandemic she is regrouping to pivot and restart her outlook on food equity work as she also continues her artistic journey.
