Art has been a passion of mine since I was very young. Through the best and worst of times, it has followed me and given me joy, comfort, and space to breathe.

I started teaching children how to make art in an effort to share that aspect of creative thinking and making, as a counter-movement to the dull everyday school work that expects kids to be the same, think the same, act the same. Art is individuality, uniqueness, self-love.

As an artist, I have worked in many different media from jewelry to watercolors. For the past four years or so I have been painting surfboards and surfboard fins and I fell in love with it!

My style differs from most surfboard artists in that I use pointillism/ stippling to create most of my work, in addition to some Polinesian designs that pay homage to surf's origin.

I love the ocean, the sunshine, the waves. Through my art, I want to share that passion with the viewer!
Each board takes me anywhere from 40 to 100 hours to finish. There are intricate details and lots and lots of dots! My commission work takes into account the client's story: every piece has a meaning.
