I work at a healthcare IT startup and I LOVE it. When I am in the office I am surrounded by passionate, smart, driven, fun souls and when I am on the road I meet with hospital executives. My role is all about relationships and there is nothing I enjoy more than getting to know and connecting with someone else - not even art. It certainly is not an 8-5 job. There are weeks where I can hardly find any balance at all - especially when I travel. But, I will always find time for a little art. Lately, my art has been more abstract and small because honestly that is all I have the time for. But, no matter what I’ll find time for creativity and adventures because if I don’t prioritize myself, how can I have energy to give to others? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Color is a focus of my work for a variety of reasons, but the main reason is for healing. My father was an angry and violent man. He took out his rage on his family daily and I took it upon myself to protect my mother and brother from him by becoming the focus of his fury. We didn’t have much, but my mother filled our home with colorful art to bring radiance into an otherwise dark place. I followed in her footsteps and escaped into vibrant art of all shapes and forms. Getting into the flow of mindful art creation has been the single most important part of my healing. I hope to share the happiness that colorful art brings me with others, especially children.
