My observation of the beauty of nature and the tiny creatures and flora that inhabited my surroundings began in my childhood. I delighted in the minute details of a dragonfly, a ladybug, toads, dewdrops, and emerging fiddleheads. My love for animals, both in nature and domesticated, is embedded deep in my heart.

As an artist, via mediums of photography, clay and animal fiber, my work focuses on the small details often overlooked by others. I strive to elicit in others an appreciation for the less obvious and to encourage others to take a closer look at the natural world and the wonder of animal life that surrounds us every day.
