About The Artist

I’m an artist, illustrator, and graphic designer with a deep love for nature and creativity. My journey with art has been a constant thread through my life. I grew up exploring creeks, meadows, and mountains, barefoot and curious—always inspired by the beauty of the natural world around me. Creativity was encouraged in my home, and I experimented with everything from finger paints to technical drawing.

Though I originally trained as a Technical Illustrator, I found my true passion in graphic design, and now, with over 20 years of experience, I get to blend art direction, branding, and design into my creative work.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the joy of working in diverse creative fields, including product design, marketing, and creative leadership. But it wasn’t until the pandemic that I rediscovered my love for hands-on art. That’s when I started experimenting with wild, messy florals in a variety of mediums, which became my “Bloom Wildly” collection—a heartfelt tribute to the beauty in nature that’s inspired me throughout my life.

I now call the small coastal town of Bandon, Oregon, home. There, I live with my wonderful husband Carl, our two Welsh Corgis (one spirited and one adorably fluffy), a rescue mixed Pomeranian, and a black kitty who thinks she's a panther. We’re surrounded by lakes, nature trails, and the majestic Pacific Ocean, all of which continue to fuel my creative energy every day.

My art is a reflection of the wonder I’ve experienced throughout my life—whether from childhood memories, the awe I felt watching my own children discover the world, or the wild and beautiful nature that surrounds me now. Creativity has always been my constant companion, and I’m so grateful to have found ways to share it with others.
