My Journey So Far
A few years ago, I thought healing meant becoming some perfect version of myself—peaceful, put together, and certain. What I’ve learned instead is that healing isn’t polished. It’s messy and quiet, tender and strong, often all at once.
After being diagnosed with autism, ADHD, and CPTSD, the world began to make sense in a new way. It wasn’t about changing who I was—it was about meeting myself for the first time. In that space, painting became my anchor. Each brushstroke, each bloom of color, helped me breathe a little easier. Art gave me a way to be still, to find a kind of peace that words couldn’t give.
Today, creating isn’t just what I do—it’s how I heal. My work is rooted in softness, truth, and the quiet beauty of becoming. I hope that when you see it, you feel a piece of that calm too.
