Artist & Emerging Art Therapist | Exploring Creativity, Healing, and Transformation
I am an artist and professional with a deep interest in the transformative power of creativity. My work explores liminal spaces. . . the thresholds between art, identity, and healing. Through both personal practice and professional experiences, I’ve come to see art as more than expression; it is a tool for reflection, growth, and connection.
My journey combines two paths. On one side, I have developed a body of creative work centered on transformation, exploring themes of resilience, identity, and belonging. On the other, I’ve built a career in sales and customer experience, where I’ve honed communication, empathy, and relationship building skills. These two domains converge in my current pursuit: to become a licensed art therapist. I believe that art, when paired with active listening and authentic connection, can create spaces for healing that are both deeply personal and profoundly social.
I am currently preparing for graduate study in Art Therapy and continue to create and share work that investigates art’s role in shaping meaning. Whether through personal projects, professional collaborations, or client relationships, my aim is to foster creativity as a catalyst for transformation.
I welcome opportunities to collaborate on commissioned projects and approach each engagement with professionalism and care. From initial concept development through to final delivery, I work closely with clients to ensure that each piece reflects both my artistic vision and their goals. Clear communication, attention to detail, and respect for deadlines are central to my practice.
