I have always loved the arts, and have enjoyed working as a large-scale corporate Web graphic designer / project manager the majority of my life. As a hobby, I also continued my fine arts pursuits by taking photographs to later paint. Studying color theory, interior design along with Feng Shui has helped change my perspective about my surrounding and living space. I also enjoy traveling around the world with my husband and family to enjoy the sights and visit museums.  My weekly exercises of Tai chi / Qi Gong and the practice of Feng Shui that has helped me to improve my mind, body, and spirits positive energies. It's all a work in progress.

I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from The Academy of Arts University and a Associate Science Degree in Commercial Art and Business in California. 
I am a member of The California Watercolor Association (CWA) and Oil Painters of America (OPA) and American Watercolor Society, Inc. (AWS). Furthermore, I have attended Botanical Art Classes at Filoli Historic House & Garden and other workshops.

I believe, art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.
