About me

I love colors! Right from the meticulous and sublime interplay of hues to the structured or messy and complex contrasts color provides. My fascination with light began over three decades ago when I took sciography classes in my undergraduate program. My interest in art stems from my education as an architect and a designer. I’ve been trained across multiple media. I have a PhD in cognitive science and believe in art and creativity as as a means to wellness and therapy.

Growing up, I trained in Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement. Those early years of studying balance, proportion, and the quiet poetry of natural forms shaped how I see and create today. I went on to receive multiple awards and recognitions from the botanical and horticultural center in my hometown. That foundation in floral design now guides the way I compose and lead my plant-based workshops, helping others experience the same harmony between form, texture, and flow that first drew me to the art.Through my classes and workshops I make art creation and exploration joyful, approachable, and deeply personal.
