About Me

I’ve lived more than a few lives and more than a  few places along my path, yet there is some common thread: taking ideas and making them visual — approachable, beautiful, and easy to hold.

My degrees were earned in the hot seat.

I opened an advertising agency at 22. Became a mother at 40. Founded a learning center for Gifted and Creative Children at 48. Then came the events hosting best selling authors, the radio show, Science to Sage magazine, the award-winning book — and somewhere in all that making, I became a graphic designer.

And this is where we meet.

Science to Sage E-Magazine & Podcast

Through in-depth interviews and visually rich storytelling, each issue bridges rigorous inquiry and timeless wisdom, inviting readers to see the deeper architecture of the universe.
