To foster kindness in the world.

What do you love about what you do?

I am able to work with a wide range of people (age, gender, race, creed) and help them to find a sweet spot in their lives that they can then share with others.

What have you learned from your successes/ failures?

My successes have sometimes helped me to fail, and my failures have many times helped me to succeed. I love both my successes and failures.

How do you keep pushing ahead after a difficult challenge?

In times of difficult challenge it is important to keep going. One can stay stuck in the muck, or one can choose to get up and move on out of it.

Have you ever encountered resistance from family, friends, or the world in general? How did you overcome those kinds of blocks?

I have encountered resistance over the years from family, friends, and the world. In each instance, I have found it important to always listen to my own inner voice. We always hear the truth. Whether or not we want to listen and act on it is a daily choice.

How has your art and creativity healed you?

My creative process and art is a daily practice to remind me that always being true to myself is the best way to continue to heal myself.
