"I paint to hold onto joy, express the pain, and share the beautiful, unstructured way I view this world."
I am an artist based in Pueblo, Colorado, working in acrylic, watercolor, digital art, and mixed media. My work moves between landscape, figurative, and expressive abstraction, unified by atmosphere, movement, and emotional intensity. I served in the U.S. Army as a multimedia illustrator, where I was trained in both manual and digital visual communication. That experience shaped the foundation of how I create. Precision. Structure. Clarity. Even now, underneath the expressive surface of my paintings, there is discipline.
My art is an over-explanation made visible. I like to take fleeting moments and overwhelming emotions and turn them into something that makes sense in a single moment. Like a full conversation happening in both the subconscious and the conscious all at once. Every piece hides something in plain sight, a detail that pulls you back in for a second look. There's always more to the story, which is ironic coming from someone who usually says everything she thinks, as quickly as she thinks it.
Where do you find inspiration?
It all starts with life for me. It's the places that make me catch my breath. The heartbeat beneath it. The moment's people share and God's creations. And, the full range of being human, joy, pain, fear, and love.
Professional Foundation
Before fully dedicating myself to fine art, I built a career in the creative industries working in graphic design, web design, marketing, and operating my own creative business. I hold a degree in marketing, an MBA from The Power MBA, and executive certificates from Harvard Business School.
That background influences how I approach art as both craft and commitment. I understand visual communication. I understand composition at scale. I understand what it means to create work that holds presence in a room.
