As a kid, I was always drawing. Art was central to my very being and I felt it was surely destined to be a meaningful part of my life.

I did take a long hiatus from it, however. The art department where I went to college felt insular and under-resourced. And, to my great surprise, I fell in love with biology. So, motivated by an inexorable fear of the ecological collapse of our planet and a steady pressure to conform to a more conventional career path, I went on to attain advanced degrees in sustainable food systems and environmental health. I worked in that field for 8 years, finding some artistic outlet in data visualization projects. But, something was missing.

Somewhere between having two babies and wallowing in the throes of the COVID-19 pandemic, my priories began to refocus; I quit my job and rediscovered that quintessential artistic part of myself. I hope to use this site to share my work with others.
