  • More about me

  • I’m a scenic and exhibit designer, painter, sculptor, mom, bad gardener, good cook…

    I wish I was a good gardener. Art is important to me. I love food. I don’t like baby talk or animals wearing clothes and/or sunglasses. Or babies wearing sunglasses. I think the word ointment is creepy.

    I studied painting intensively before studying and practicing scenic design, now I want to marry all my background into exhibit design to find where the audience meets the road…the what and why come before the how and don’t forget it!!!
