Art has always been a guiding force in my life—a way to connect, to dream, and to build community. When I first encountered Borealis Art Guild, I was struck by the energy and sincerity of the artists, volunteers, and supporters who make this place so special.

Stepping into the role of Executive Director felt like a natural extension of my passion for the arts and my desire to help others find their creative spark. I’m inspired by the Guild’s legacy, but even more excited about shaping its future—inviting new voices, launching innovative programs, and making art accessible to everyone.

At Borealis, I see endless possibilities for collaboration and growth, and I’m honored to lead a space where creativity isn’t just celebrated—it’s shared, nurtured, and woven into the fabric of our community.
