I am a multidisciplinary artist, poet, coach, and facilitator who loves a good question. My endless curiosity has me constantly exploring new what-ifs, then iterating them till they delight me. Working along the road between joy and grief, I invite people to explore that journey through art, experiences, and conversation. The stories we carry with us offer richness and depth in how they can shape us. Even the painful ones, in time, can be transformed for our greater good. There are treasures to be discovered and created wherever we are at on the way.

I support survivors of domestic violence, focusing on AAPI women of faith navigating emotional abuse. This violence has been part of my history as well, and I continue to find wholeness and healing on the other side. As a result of my experiences, my work is trauma-informed and spiritually rooted.

Media are chosen that best equip each artwork to say what it needs to say. Any medium, conventional or otherwise, is fair game. Time, space, and people are my favorites. They allow me to create dialogue, spaces, and experiences where people can find clarity about the connections that are important to them, explore possibilities for what could be, and dream what's next.

My work is a window into thoughtful, deeper reflection that explores fresh perspectives, making connection with new insight and transformation possible.

It is my deepest joy to create generative conversations that matter.

I am a California native, currently based in Los Angeles. My education and roots are in graphic design, and I migrated to the fine arts in the late 90s. Poetry has been a through line, as has a lifetime of intentional listening, now in the form of coaching.
