I’m an artist, certified life coach, author and committed beachcomber.
After a career in magazine publishing and the wine business in the Pacific Northwest, I have been following a lifelong dream to become an oil painter. Held back for many years by serious case of Impostor Syndrome, I vowed to overcome it for myself, and help other creative artists get past their own blocks.
I coach artists one-on-one on website design, email marketing, creative process, and most importantly, mindset. I’m now finishing an MFA in painting at age 60; where I’ve been teaching painting and color theory – and thought work, of course!, helping artists and creatives realize their dreams.
My podcast, The Metaphor Mindset, focuses on ways to manage your mind and find more joy and meaning in your creative work.
