After over 40 years in private business and higher education—including roles from administrative support to Director of Operations—I’m now stepping into a new chapter rooted in creativity, healing, and purpose. While raising four children, I built a meaningful career, earned degrees in business, psychology, and English, and even taught literature for a few years. Yet, the part of my work I loved most was always supporting others—mentoring staff, leading retreats, and helping people grow.

My journey into the therapeutic arts began from a deeply personal place. Like many, I was exploring ways to process and release old emotional wounds. Writing had long been my refuge, and therapy provided tools—but I longed for something more embodied and intuitive. That’s when I discovered Intuition Painting®.

Despite having no formal art training, this process opened a powerful new path for self-expression, insight, and emotional healing. It allowed me to bypass the mind and connect directly with my inner world. The transformation I experienced inspired me to become a certified Intuition Painting® facilitator and launch Soul Journey Arts.

Through intuitive art processes, I guide others in exploring their creativity, releasing inner blocks, and reconnecting with their own wisdom. My workshops aren’t about making “art”—they’re about making space for truth, healing, and personal growth.

This work is more than a career shift—it’s a calling. I believe everyone has the capacity to heal and express themselves through creativity. It’s my honor to create nurturing, inclusive spaces where people can feel safe, seen, and inspired.
