During the pandemic, she and her son established their partnership, We Practice Life, to introduce practices to support habit change for social, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. To support her own growth and wellbeing, she likes to paint and write flash memoir and poetry with a focus on nature as a spiritual guide.

As an artist, she creates moody and mysterious mixed media pieces. Her work is as much a spiritual practice as it is a creative writing and a visual arts practice. Curating colors and images from meditations and pairing them with harvested words and phrases from Lectio Divina and blackout poetry, she works on paper, canvas, and digitally.  Her practice has given her insights and an outlet for her intense longings for unity and wholeness. She considers her work successful when it invites viewers to pause and consider their own questions and longings.

She currently works as;

• the Director of Curriculum and McMillan Institute Associate at The Jung Center Houston

• co-founder, coach, and facilitator for We Practice Life, LLP; developing essential life skills curriculum, coaching folks to uncover their unique paths, and facilitating team-building, courses, workshops, and creativity retreats.
