As a working artist, I am blessed to have the freedom to do
what I love the most—to be with people and create something special. The
opportunity to create, connect, and build relationships with others defines me.
Art is a vehicle for making the world a better place. I use art to serve and
connect with many communities and strive to bring out the best in them.
I express myself in all aspects of my life through art. I
have made works on paper, murals, mosaics, permanent installations, designs for posters/books,
taught classes, collaborated with non-profit organizations, community centers, detention
centers, public schools, and individuals.
My work is not confined to a specific medium because I am open to and inspired by many positive influences and ideas of expression. That is the reason I am excited about art; there are always new possibilities.

Working with youth keeps me informed and relevant. Working
with people and communities allows me the opportunity to share my knowledge and
embrace new ideas and thoughts. This kind of work excites my creative and
expressive side of the art making process.
I am also blessed to be able to make connections and build lasting friendships through the interactions that come with working in a collaborative process. It is through these opportunities that I have been able to focus my energy and passion into developing into the type of artist that I feel most comfortable being.
Thank you to all who have given me the opportunity to share my passion of art with you. I feel that every one of us has a truly good side and a special gift to share with the world. We must find a way to spread this gift whether it is through art, music, dance, or other mediums of expression.
