My art is filled with bright colors, happy creatures, and tasty things to eat. Despite my deep appreciation for artwork that reflects the darkness of the human spirit, if I tried to paint a monster it would just come out wearing a cute hat.

I received my undergraduate degree in Costume Design from Tufts University and my JD from Boston College Law School (no, there's no straight line between those two points). After working as an attorney specializing in helping victims of domestic violence, both my mother and stepfather died within the same year.

I only half-jokingly describe this as my tragic artist superhero origin story (as shorthand for explaining the immensity of the decision to return to art to move forward with my life and process my grief).

My work is inspired by my varied background, my obsession with historical fashion, and my experience with the power of clothes to transform the wearer into whomever they want to be.

Thank you for reading my story and taking a look at my art!
