Art

Now I’m telling my own stories.

I have made my living writing for businesses, entrepreneurs and non-profits – their products, services, missions, people, purpose. Now I am writing – and making pictures – to investigate my own experiences. I am drawn to what’s challenging, disruptive, surprising, buried. It is especially meaningful to find words and images for what’s hard to talk about and, through this work, to discover both more space and more connection.
