My artwork is a visual diary of transformation—from brokenness and loss to purpose and identity. Rooted in my own journey of healing after a life-altering illness left me searching for myself, my creative process has been a means to rebuild not only my life but also my spirit. I consider my art a testament to resilience, a reflection of how darkness can give way to light, and a hopeful celebration of renewal.

I am deeply inspired by the beauty found in the natural world and the rhythms of creation. The way nature transforms continuously resonates with the human experience and emotion, and through my work, I explore this profound connection. I am drawn to scenes that echo these natural rhythms, inviting viewers to pause and notice the delicate interplay between light and shadow. By focusing on the intricate details of the environment around us, I hope to foster a deeper appreciation for the gifts of beauty that often go unnoticed.

As a largely self-taught artist based in Chicago, my passion for art was kindled early in life but truly came alive during a challenging chapter that reshaped my identity. Through various phases of expression, I have found healing and transformation, and I am committed to sharing the restorative power of creativity with others through my healing arts ministry. Each piece I create is not only a reflection of my own story but also an invitation for viewers to recognize their own capacity for growth and renewal.

I envision my inner five-year-old jumping for joy, fulfilled by the realization that a childhood dream of “being an artist” has become a meaningful calling and purpose. My art is both a personal exploration and a universal language, bridging the beauty of creation with the resilience of the human spirit.
