About me

With over 20 years of experience in design, marketing, and merchandising, my creative journey has come full circle—returning to the heart of what I love most: expressing art within the spaces we live in. My passion is to create custom paintings that harmonize with your home, combining your existing style with thoughtful, personal touches in a painting that brings warmth and meaning.

Becoming a mother added a beautiful new layer to my story. It was through simple moments—coloring alongside my kids—that I reconnected with my creative spark. Those quiet, joyful times reminded me how much I love working with color, texture, and emotion. That rediscovery became the foundation for a more intentional, soulful approach to my work.

Now, I bring that renewed passion into every project—blending my paintings with your unique space and style. Whether refreshing a room or creating a custom artwork, my goal is to help you make something you love, using what you already have, and turning your space into something truly personal.
