Empowering Every Individual to Create Without Boundaries

I have dedicated my entire career in helping others unlock their greatest potential. My journey bridges the gap between high-level professional execution, award-winning creative entrepreneurship, and a deep-seated passion for inclusive education.

A Foundation of Trust and Precision

Before stepping into the art world, my professional foundation was built in high-stakes environments where precision, honor, and resourcefulness were non-negotiable. Holding a Top Secret security clearance trained me to manage complex operations with absolute discretion and sharp awareness.

I channeled this strategic mindset into a highly successful 20+ year career in luxury event planning. From orchestrating high-end weddings and complex marketing events to curating museum gallery openings and formal dinner receptions, I mastered the art of managing moving pieces to create unforgettable, community-driven experiences.

Award-Winning Innovation

My passion for creative expression ultimately led me to launch Home Art Party, the original mobile pallet art paint studio. I wanted to break down the walls of standard art studios and give everyday painters complete design flexibility. The community embraced this vision wholeheartedly, and Home Art Party was honored as the “Best of Kitsap and Pierce County, WA” for entertainment multiple years in a row.

A Mother’s Mission and Adaptive Art

Our team is made up of passionate and talented individuals who are committed to making a difference through the arts. From our board of directors to our volunteers, everyone at Adaptive Art Association is dedicated to creating a vibrant and inclusive arts community.

A New Chapter: The Association

Every individual deserves the therapeutic, joyful, and empowering experience of creating art. To turn this belief into a widespread reality, I founded an association entirely dedicated to bringing high-quality, accessible art lessons to all individuals. By merging 20 years of professional resourcefulness with my firsthand knowledge of adaptive teaching, our mission is to ensure that no student is ever excluded from the canvas.
