As I was growing up my parents would take me to as many nature centers, hiking trails, and museums as they could.  Those experiences are still implemented in my life today because I value the importance of nature. Sometimes you may see the human figure or a variety of animals and insects within my work, which often symbolizes nurture, regrowth, and balance.

 

Papercutting is my medium of choice because it allows me to cut intricate lines and create intensity with layers, textures, and patterns. I’m fascinated by how the body works to heal, move, transform, and adapt. Typically, my work embodies the interaction between the female figure and nature, by developing a conversation around the body-mind connection.
