The artist says that she is interested in using economic

materials, paint, small balloon sculptures, and collage elements

to recreate the nostalgic and psychological aspects of graphic

novels, as well as incorporating science fiction and architectural

themes. She loves teaching college level students and believes

that painting and drawing with students creates a collaborative

environment that is essential to understanding contemporary art

practices.
