Launching my decorative painting business 25 years ago was the beginning of a creative career defined (so far) by the launch of a successful decorative painting and design consulting business and the creation of Plein Heir to express my artwork through my passion for home accessories and furnishings. I've hosted a successful makeover show and made many special appearances on television, which then allowed me to work with national and international brands, and a few celebrities too.

Most recently, I lead an iconic Bay Area paint label from regional company to national retail brand through thoughtful intuitive color development and marketing initiatives as Color Marketing and then Creative & Brand Director.

Everything we put out into the world communicates something to someone. So, I aim to create from a place of authentic desire to empower, delight, and inspire myself, the people around me, and anyone who may see and be touched by my work.

While the skills and techniques for each of these iterations - be it painting, producing, writing, developing, or marketing - are vastly different, my approach is the same. I start with what I call the math and the heart bringing in all of the research, data, and concrete details I can to a project at hand, and then applying the emotional qualities that resonate with us humans. I am a color artist using it to paint, curate, develop, and transform.
