​

As an Indianapolis, IN native, I've been creating art in one form or another ever since I can remember. ​As a child, I loved drawing, writing poems, solving mysteries, and storytelling. I used to ride around the neighborhood on my bicycle, pretending to be a secret agent. I made treasure maps, hid clues, and buried treasure for my friends to find. Now grown up, I still love storytelling and I still do it—both with words and—mysteriously, of course—through my art.

​

My work is inspired by the beauty of the natural world. I also find inspiration in poetry, folklore, fairy tales, ancient tapestries and paintings, contemporary art and design, color, texture, and

my faith. I don’t commit myself to one style

or genre. To do so would limit my creativity.

I hope that my artwork stirs within you a

sense of mystery and takes you to a serene

place of peace and joy. Thank you for visiting!
