I create art & teach it as well. Creating is restoring, inspiring & chaotic. I teach to help others understand it better & release the fear.

Murals are my heartbeat—transforming a small spark into bold, immersive color at scale is where I thrive. I’m drawn to work that invites people to pause, feel, and connect. Lately, watercolor has captured me; its fluid, unpredictable movement mirrors emotion in motion and keeps my creative process alive and evolving.
Where do you find inspiration?In the quiet stillness of the night when everyone is asleep. I am uninterrupted, all distractions are quieted and I can allow my mind to wander unshackled until ideas begin to form.
What would you do with $25,000?I would most likely take a honeymoon or family trip and pay off some bills.
