I believe that being drawn toward the intuitive things I enjoy in life naturally led me to pursue the arts. I am deeply inspired by the areas of convergence between the human and natural worlds, and I wake up every day with a sort of feverish desire to weave and portray stories about the same. Gouache and watercolor paints, 35mm film, and the blessed camera on my mobile phone are some of the many mediums I use.

Research and planning are at the core of my artistic ritual and this typically includes spending hours at a local public library reading books about the history of sidewalk trees, walking aimlessly on the city streets with enough pauses to absorb all that she has to offer, immersing myself in natural spaces surrounded by critters, and traveling as much as my wallet can support me.
