I am a dreamer. I like to paint pretty canvases. I love finding beauty in the most unthought-of places and I love capturing the true essence of emotion and finding simplicity. I am a photographer. Born in North Carolina, and lived in Wisconsin a good portion of my life. Chicago brought me diversity, schooling and passion. I, along with my beautiful family of three, presently reside in a little town outside of Boulder, Colorado.

I love sunrises. Red. My amazing husband and fantastic little boy. Creating creativity. People. The idea of Compassion. The Smokey Mountains. Sunsets in England. The night sky in the Sahara Desert. Awesome papery things.

I have been published twice over.
