Artist Statement

I believe that through art, stories can be told, emotions can be captured and voices can be heard. For as long as I can remember, I have been a creative individual. Whether I could be found painting and drawing as a little girl or styling photo shoots with my friends as a teen, being creative in one way or another has always been an important outlet for me. I have made it my mission to be able to share my love for creativity by providing art education to those in my community. I have recently begun to teach art lessons to children and adults out of my in home studio in Kentville, NS.
