    First Breath

I’m a visual artist, writer, and double-lung transplant recipient. My work reflects a lived journey through recovery, illness, and renewal, where creativity has become both a refuge and a revelation. Through abstract painting and reflective writing, I share stories of resilience and transformation — inviting others to witness healing not as a destination, but as an ongoing process of becoming whole.
