By day, I practice as a physician, but my first love was visual art. As a young artist, I specialized in expressive charcoal and soft pastel portraits, though a setback during my time at college paused my artistic journey for decades. The pandemic served as an unexpected catalyst for revival, reigniting a dormant need to create. After reconnecting with drawing and watercolor, I began formal training in oil painting in early 2025, studying under Todd Bonita and other notable local professionals. I enjoy painting children, animals, and the natural world. My work represents a joyful reclamation of a lifelong passion, proving that healing and art are deeply interconnected. I live in Brentwood with my husband and two teenagers, and besides painting, I enjoy hiking, camping, and swimming in NH lakes.
