About

I am a practicing artist, a licensed architect and a grateful mom. I was born and raised in Central Minnesota and currently live in North Dakota. I have a variety of mediums I work with in my studio, from acrylic paint to ceramic clay. I enjoy practicing both art and architecture and feel they dance with each other in my head, taking turns with the lead.

Artists Statement

I am a big day dreamer and often ponder the sky and space above. My work tries to capture the energy imagined around me and beyond, from the music playing to the breathes I take, or thoughts on what’s happening in our universe. I take visceral movements with a metaphysical existence.
