Helping Artists Create, Organize, and Thrive!
Artist - Website Designer - Creative Consultant

As an artist, I understand the challenges and joys of the creative process. After my cancer surgery in 2022, I realized the importance of stepping out of limitations and embracing every creative possibility. This transformative experience deepened my passion for helping others discover their potential.

Through my work as a course creator, website designer, and artist business consultant, I’m dedicated to helping fellow artists create inspiring spaces, build thriving businesses, and stay connected to their creativity.

Whether it’s organizing your studio for maximum inspiration, creating actionable strategies to grow your art career, or developing clear, step-by-step plans to turn your creative ideas into income, I provide personalized, hands-on solutions designed to fit your unique needs.

When I’m not working, you’ll often find me experimenting with new artistic techniques, walking along the lakeside for inspiration, playing with my black lab, or dreaming up fresh ideas to support artists like you.

Let’s collaborate to create something extraordinary together!
