I fell in love with painting at 40 - while creating a home I truly loved. I was searching for artwork that felt timeless, warm, and quietly contemporary—pieces that brought a room to life without demanding attention. When I couldn't quite find what I was looking for, I began painting them myself.

For nearly two decades, I've built products, companies, and teams in Silicon Valley, leading at both startup and executive levels. Throughout that journey, creativity remained a constant—expressed through design, music, travel, and a deep appreciation for emotionally inspiring spaces.

Today my work explores two recurring themes. Some paintings are inspired by architecture and atmosphere—sunlit courtyards, weathered walls, hidden staircases, and places that feel suspended in time. Others focus on people—moments of reflection, conversation, creativity, and everyday rituals. Together, they form an evolving collection of contemporary paintings inspired by travel, thoughtful interiors, and the quiet beauty of ordinary life.

Every painting is created with the hope that it will become part of a home and be lived with for years to come.
