Lives and works in Boston, Massachusetts, and Ogunquit, Maine
I am a neuropathologist and research scientist by day, but my passion lies in painting. Painting is my alternative universe. It serves as my escape from reality, allowing me to immerse myself in the beauty of the natural world. I find inspiration in the elements of the landscape - the earth, sea, sky, flowers, and trees - as well as in the people I know. The vivid colors, intricate patterns, and diverse elements of our existence come together in my art, reflecting a celebration of life and positivity in the midst of the world's turmoil.
