I make art as a way of giving form to experiences and feelings.

My work often begins with something unresolved: change, motherhood, caregiving, memory, relationship, or a question I don’t yet know how to answer. The process is intuitive and exploratory: a way of staying with an experience long enough to see what might emerge. I work across encaustic, acrylic, watercolor, pencil, pastel, oil paint and oil sticks, often layering materials as the work develops.

I’m particularly interested in the space between parents, children and families: how we express ourselves, understand one another, and give form to experiences that may be difficult to communicate. Motherhood and raising my daughter have made me increasingly attentive to the many different ways we perceive and process the world, including sensitivity, pattern, intensity, and forms of expression or understanding that don’t always translate easily into words.

While much of my work began with my own experiences, I have recently started making commissioned pieces for others. These works begin with conversation: a feeling, a loss, a transition, a relationship, a difficult or formative experience, or simply something in a life that someone wants to explore or hold differently. I listen for what sits beneath the surface and look for a visual language.

In parallel, I’m exploring tools designed to help children and families better understand and navigate the digital economies that increasingly shape everyday life. I’m interested in how we can give families more language, discernment and agency, particularly as children encounter technologies and environments that are changing faster than our understanding of their effects.

My perspective is also informed by a career spent working across emerging technology, go-to-market strategy and organizational transformation. That experience sits in the background of the practice, but has shaped how I observe, question and make sense of change.

Across all of this, I don’t approach the work with answers. Making is part of how I look, listen and try to understand.
