From an early age, I was captivated by the power of color. Even as a child, I approached creativity with a spirit of independence, often venturing beyond the lines of traditional coloring books. This instinct to think — and color — outside the box was an early sign of the artistic path ahead.

I began painting at the age of 10, studying under several influential teachers who encouraged me to push boundaries and refine my skills. Their mentorship deeply shaped my artistic development and professional journey.

After a successful career in both interior design and visual art, I relocated from Atlanta, Georgia, to Highlands, North Carolina. Today, I work from my studio, where I continue to explore color, form, and emotion through my paintings.
