She resides in Chicago where she relocated from Atlanta almost ten years ago. She is working toward establishing a small art studio that will deliver programming for sufferers of chronic disease so that they, and their caretakers, may utilize the empowerment of artistic creativity as a vital part of their disease management. Her art practice is centered around collage and abstract painting. www.createmagazine.com/podcast
