ABOUT
I pursued my passions for spiritual direction and art after working in the Biotech Industry as a Molecular Biologist and raising my two sons. I have been offering Spiritual Direction since 2003.
“God is present, are we present to listen to him?” We were created with five senses, and can be present to God with all of them. I bring this to individual spiritual direction and to my creation of contemplative spaces and Prayer rooms.
As an artist, I work in a variety of media--glass mosaics, repurposed materials, painting (oils and acrylics), street chalk art (Gesso Italiano), in addition to working with glass at a torch (lamp work).
I enjoy working in my garden, reading, and writing. I especially love sunsets, waiting for that particular moment the sky turns my favorite color of indigo blue.
