I am a painter and writer in University Place, Washington. Six years ago, and when it felt like my art career was finally gaining traction, my twins were born at 24 weeks weighing 1 lb 10 oz each. Everything in my life, including my art, was put on hold so we could navigate a very volatile NICU journey.

After 101 days in the hospital, heart and brain surgeries and countless ups and downs, our twins were discharged. This season of my life changed me and has since sent me on a new trajectory; to spread hope. I use our triumphant NICU story and my art to help bring awareness to birth trauma, the NICU and disability parenting. My mission is to help people going through similar trials feel less alone.

Every sale made on this site helps fund my Cards of Hope Campaign where I mail art to any mother of traumatic birth who has requested one.
