About the artist: I am a painter, teacher, mother, and advocate for Autism and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) awareness based in Los Angeles, CA. I was born and raised in Chicago, where I studied painting at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago before transferring to Colorado College to complete my undergraduate studies in fine art. While working on my Master of Arts in Teaching with an emphasis on Art Education at Tufts/Museum School, I experimented with ceramics alongside my continued painting practice. In 2021, I presented a one-person exhibition of my paintings that was accompanied by a panel discussion addressing my art and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome as part of the Keck School of Medicine's HEAL Presents Art & Medicine program at the University of Southern California. I was awarded the Inaugural Exhibition Program Award by the Simone Gad Foundation, Los Angeles, CA for my exhibition Neurospicy at bG Gallery in January 2023. Since 2003, I've been an art teacher working with children and adult learners.
