About

I love Art because it gives my soul a voice in the space where words fail. I express in my ART the great roller coaster of emotions, feelings and experiences that are living LIFE.

I started working with Art as a therapeutic outlet as a survivor of Trauma and it has since become one of my great joys and passions, it serves as a constant reminder of the amazing abilities we have to exchange our Ashes for Beauty.

I am constantly inspired by Life and feel incredibly grateful for the gift of seeing each new day.

I Feel blessed to be able to express myself and live a life that inspires others to embrace their creativity and chase their dreams.

In addition to Art, my other creative outlets include Performing Artist as a Trumpet Player, writing Poetry and Dancing. I also love the great outdoors and spend time in Nature as much as possible.

I am a 25 year veteran of the Real Estate Management and Construction industries and have served in many capacities in Not for Profit Organizations, including the Concord Blue Devils Drum & Bugle Corps, Prayer Tower COGIC in Oakland CA, Glide Memorial.

I am the current Board President/CEO of the Oakland Compassion Project in Oakland CA, providing inclusive services to support the dignity and wellbeing of the Unhoused population.
