My Story

Art became the language for what I could not yet say.

My art was born from healing. After experiencing sexual assault, I began painting through the pain and emotions I did not yet have words for. What started as a personal way to survive became a way to speak for others who may not be ready or able to speak for themselves.

My work now holds all of me—love, pain, joy, reflection, and hope. Each piece is created from an honest emotional place and invites the viewer to find their own meaning within it.

Through collections including Surviving in Silence Out Loud, my self-care work, and Shades of Us, I create art that honors feeling, healing, identity, and the full human experience.
