I grew up on the North Shore of Massachusetts, where sketchbooks, paint, and a camera were always close at hand. Creating has been part of who I am for as long as I can remember. While attending the University of Maine, I fell in love with the quiet beauty and wild spirit of Maine, a connection that continues to shape my work today. Now living in the Salisbury Cove area of Bar Harbor, I draw endless inspiration from the island’s rocky shores, shifting light, and ever-changing sea. Nature is both my refuge and my muse. Through painting and photography, I try to capture not only what I see, but what I feel. I am constantly searching for beauty in the natural world: in weathered stones, coastal fog, wildflowers, and the way light moves across the water. My work is an invitation to slow down, look closely, and feel connected to the landscapes that inspire us. I hope that my work offers a quiet moment of peace and a sense of wonder
