Artist‘s Statement
I love a good twist in my stories. It’s both fun and amusing to me to write that was headed in a way different direction. I have a habit about writing about regrets or heartbreak, challenges that have caused upheaval in my life at times. Writing about them empowers me and always reminds me of the talent I have when I put my work first. The more I practice and hone my craft the better I get and the more confident I feel others will like it the more I write.
