Calligraphy is both an expression of my inner child and soul! As a child, I would create extravagant "lettering" art work and display masterpieces on my bedroom door. That same playful passion evolved into a deeper love for calligraphy in 2020, when I began practicing modern calligraphy as a creative outlet.

In 2022, I took my first Sip and Script class in Chicago and instantly fell in love with the blend of creativity, community, and fun. As an instructor since 2025, I've enjoyed seeing how the artform requires patience, a slow speed and knowing that all the pieces come together more beautifully than you can imagine when you laying the ground work, letting your practice turn into an intuitive dance with the basic strokes! Getting to share this journey with others and help them tap into their own creative energy in a laid-back, encouraging environment makes my heart happy.

I also have a knack for all things celebratory—creating birthday gift baskets, designing custom invitations, anything I can get my hands on, and even hosting hands-on workshops like a DIY terrarium class! At the heart of it all is my love for making life’s special (and everyday) moments feel seen and celebrated—with joy, artistry, and a whole lot of heart. Outside of Calligraphy, I am a Trauma-Informed coach, NASM Certified Personal Trainer and am passionate about empowering others to live healthy, happy lives and step into their own innate power.
