My work documents a season of history through a deeply personal lens. Each piece captures the quiet tension between memory and change, inviting viewers to pause with me in the space between what was and what is becoming. I create to preserve moments that might otherwise go unnoticed, turning small truths into visual testimonies. ThroughContinue reading “You can have a piece of time.”

Healing families
I work with all kinds of families—adoptive, foster, blended, and biological—but there’s one story that I want to tell you about. It’s about a little boy who experienced a medical trauma when he was just a year and a half old. In an instant, his voice was gone. He stopped speaking, and from that momentContinue reading “Healing families”
Living Water
It was midday, the sun blazing overhead, when Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down beside a well in Samaria. The disciples had gone into town to buy food, leaving Him alone. As He rested, a woman approached, carrying her jar to draw water. She was a Samaritan—someone Jews typically avoided—but Jesus spoke first: “WouldContinue reading “Living Water”

When you become a part of the family
I spend a lot of time in people’s homes, working one-on-one with families to implement Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®). It’s a deeply relational process, and over time, something special happens—there’s a moment when I know I’ve been fully welcomed into their world. It’s subtle, but unmistakable. I’m no longer just a visitor; I’m part ofContinue reading “When you become a part of the family”
Learning how to “stick together”
One of the greatest honors in my work is stepping into families’ homes and helping them implement Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®). At its core, TBRI® is about healing relationships through connection, and it’s guided by three simple—but powerful—relational rules: Recently, I had the joy of watching a family take on a deceptively simple challenge: buildingContinue reading “Learning how to “stick together””
It was me
I was introduced to a new form of art—quick sketches, simple designs filled in later. They’re not polished or perfect. They’re meant to capture an idea, a whisper, a moment. And I’ve found that the thoughts the Holy Spirit gives me are best caught this way—before they drift away. There was a time when IContinue reading “It was me”
The Morning After
The Morning After was inspired by a vision from the Holy Spirit for the Client…what do you see when you look at it?
