Hello

I am an emerging figurative Artist in St. Louis, Missouri. My watercolor portraits explore hope, trauma, and promise.

Come take a closer look into the story behind my work. Laugh with me as I juggle two young kids, nights in the ER, and a passion to challenge current narratives related to trauma, community, and motherhood.

Check out my work, my blog, and my most recent interviews.
