Making Space for
Curiosity, Conversation—
& Possibility
Art is my medium. Humanity is my subject.
A lifetime of working with people and in complicated systems, I draw on [art + words + nature] to explore what it means to be human. My work invites people to slow down, notice more, question what we know, connect with others and recognize our power to create change.
And—every now and again—I create a whimsical thing.
WHAT I BELIEVE —
The Art of Noticing
I believe many of the answers we're searching for are closer than we think—tucked between the small details, quiet moments and repeating patterns of life. The [Art of Noticing] is about looking closer, staying curious, and inviting the full story to unfold. When we do—I believe—we discover what's possible.
I don't use art to tell people what to think, what decision to make or how to behave. I use creativity to make room for questioning, reflection and conversations that might otherwise feel difficult. I want people to think for themselves, consider other perspectives and recognize that they have the agency to choose. We are far wiser than we realize. And, we don't have to think alike to learn from one another—or make something meaningful together.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME —
I’m a social worker, registered nurse, systems thinker and [artist . writer . lifelong observer] of the human experience. I use art, words, and nature-inspired metaphors to make complex ideas and difficult conversations more approachable—making room for people to practice the Art of Noticing, nurture their sense of self agency and embrace their ability to shape their own life.
