About Emerald City Art sTudio

I have always believed in the power of art and its ability to spark imagination, boost self-confidence and foster self-expression.

With a BFA from the University of Michigan School of Art & Design and MA in Fashion from Parsons School of Design, I've had amazing opportunities to work with many designers and artists who have inspired me to follow my own passions to build imaginative creations that help shape everyday lives. 

As a Concept and Fashion Designer for Ralph Lauren in New York City to a Creative Director at Amazon in Seattle, I have had the gift of being able to invent, build, learn, and mentor alongside  many talented artists and business leaders.

Emerald City Art Studio is a place of inspiration, collaboration, and joyful exploration. I always dreamed to create a warm and inviting space where young and adult artists feel encouraged and supported in their artistic endeavors as I have always been. 

There's art for every age! Explore drawing, painting, fibers, construction, printing, pottery, and more! Exciting After School classes will immerse your child in thoughtful art experiences with a focus on age-appropriate, process-driven learning.
