My journey with art began as a toddler attending classes at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. For over 30 years, I have worked as a designer in the fashion, home furnishings, and gift industries, focusing
on creativity and visual storytelling. Now, inspired by the loving memory of my adored little Moxie, I am returning to my fine arts roots with Reimagined Paw Prints.

Moxie entered my life in an unexpected way. At just seven months old, he was found abandoned on a freezing January day on my street in Manhattan, tied to a restaurant door with a small bag of belongings. After a lot of back and forth - and even having to fight my building to keep him - Moxie was officially mine. His presence filled my life with joy and purpose, and our bond became unbreakable during our 17 years,
3 months, and 1 day journey.
3 months, and 1 day journey.
After losing both Precious (his feline sister) and Moxie, I found myself missing their companionship deeply. In my grief, I first worked part time with a company, then started my own in-home overnight pet-sitting service as a way to stay connected with animals while continuing to work on various design projects. This experience continues to be instrumental in my healing and passion for animals recently leading to the birth of Reimagined Paw Prints.
Inspired by Moxie’s memory, I am now creating fine art with my pet photography, blending my background in design with my love for animals. A portion of all proceeds will be donated to support rescues, helping animals in need, a cause close to my heart.
