I feel my greatest accomplishment so far, was making it through the economic down-turn years ago and staying in business and growing exponentially every year.

I am imagining a balance in my life consisting of doing less work on the construction end and working on things that I am passionate about in line with my artistic side. This will allow me to have more time to become a part of organizations that have an impact and I plan on not living in the United States full-time and travel more. 

What inspires me is the Earth and the environment. It stimulates, moves and inspires me. I have a life that I am grateful for.

First, I want to be remembered as a kind, loving human being. Second, as someone who has brought about healing and beauty to the world.

• The International Decorative Artisan's League

Metropolitan State University, Scholarship. 

• Max Fund, an animal shelter where I volunteered to care for the dogs and cats. I took dogs on walks, snuggled with them, and played and snuggled with the cats.
• Donating artwork to benefits and or auctions to raise funds for organizations or for individuals with medical issues.
• The intention to donate to causes I am passionate about locally, nationally, and internationally with each purchase made or as a percentage of an artistic project for a client. 

There are so many things I love doing whether it is with friends and family or on my own. I am never bored. I love the outdoors- the natural environment- whether that is going for walks or hikes, riding my bicycle, going camping, gardening, or enjoying water activities such as kayaking and swimming. Dancing and music as a whole truly light up my soul and replenish my energy. I enjoy cooking, reading, and have a dream of traveling the world throughout my life connecting all that I am eager to learn and share. There is so much more to see and experience.
