Picture
As a senior communications executive for large corporations, I happily pursued a life of
financial security, travel, and leisure at a relatively young age.  However, since my early twenties,
I have been continuously challenged with seemingly insurmountable obstacles, including
stage III breast cancer, multiple sclerosis, abusive relationships, an alcoholic spouse, divorce,

depression, and single-motherhood to a disabled child. 

These struggles contaminated my perfect world of joy and confidence with pain, doubt, and
self-loathing at times and have lead me down all sorts of avenues.  Denial, wine, and more
lip-gloss were my solutions for coping, but proved to be inadequate bandages for wounds that required more substantial dressing.  Over time, I have learned to integrate these obstacles into
my life and embrace the wisdom they have afforded me.  Doing so has enabled me to achieve
peace and ​happiness and truly savor serendipitous moments.   

All of my works, be they via the written word or imagery, explore the universally-understood
human condition.  They are honest, in-depth evaluations of myself and my journey that question current beliefs, social morés, self-worth, and human significance.  They highlight my achievements as well as my failures-- ​some of which were self-induced, some of which were thrust upon me.
