About Me
Welcome to My Happy Place where paint is slung, dopamine is made, and the magic is in the mess!
I am an accidental artist who discovered painting as a lifeline after being diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson's. Sleepless nights led me to pick up a brush, and what started as a way to pass the time grew into a vital outlet. Painting became my way to clear my mind, embrace the chaos, and reflect life's unpredictable, messy nature.
For me, art isn't about the final piece—it's about diving into the process, letting go of control, and finding unexpected moments of clarity in the mess. Painting has become my way of living fully, laughing freely, and embracing every twist and turn.
My unapologetic love for pink—lots of pink—wasn’t just a vibe. Turns out, pink physically triggers dopamine, the very thing Parkinson’s takes away, making it an empowering and healing choice all at once. Painting gives me more than just a creative outlet; it taught me to roll with the punches, adapt to the unexpected, and let the process unfold without needing a clear destination.
My daughters are my why— my fire and the reason I keep showing up. They inspire me daily and fully embrace our home filled with pink dog paw prints and scattered canvases. Together, we laugh at the mess, lean into the unpredictability, and celebrate the beauty in life's chaos.
Painting mirrors life—raw, imperfect, and constantly shifting. It's never about perfection. It's about showing up, trusting the process, and not afraid to be authentic. Every piece I create is tied to a feeling, a moment, or a mood, making my art an honest reflection of the journey I'm on.
Through painting, I've found my rhythm—
tuning out the noise, embracing the unexpected, and making life my own.
