I co-wrote Kids' Search for Meaning with Andrea Ackerly, about Dr. Viktor Frankl whose real-life story inspired the book. Together, we wanted to share a message of courage, creativity, and hope that can rise even in the darkest moments.

As an artist, I focus on creating pieces that inspire reflection and spark conversation. My work draws from personal experience, teaching, and a lifelong passion for creativity.

I’m a former art teacher who understands the challenges of engaging students of all ages, from Pre-K through adults. I now share my curriculum and resources with other educators to help bring creativity, confidence, and emotional growth into every classroom.
