My interest in art therapy sparked from my experiences in the world of art history, along with my background in psychology and studio art. I find art-making and creativity to be an entryway into self-awareness and understanding.

After completing my BA in art history at the University of Oklahoma, I worked in museums before entering the field of art therapy. Drawn to the inner workings of the mind through years of studying art history, art therapy was a natural next step for me.

I received my MPS in Art Therapy from Pratt Institute in 2017. I am a member of the American Art Therapy Association, and registered as a board-certified art therapist with the Art Therapy Credentials Board.

I have facilitated individual and group art therapy in various settings, including hospitals, schools, community centers, and private practice.

I lived in New York City for nearly 10 years before relocating to Denver, Colorado in 2023. I enjoy visiting art museums, hiking, reading, and spending time with my family and Aussie doodle. I practice yoga and mindfulness exercises, and continue to explore my own journey through art-making.
