Proud Mizzou grad and ZTA alumna! I started cultivating my love for ink and paper in October 2013 after a life changing family emergency. Having a close one attempt suicide made me dive into literature regarding depression and different personality disorders. I read as much as I could to familiarize myself with my family member's disorder and finally decided it was time to give my mind a break. I picked up a pen and paper and let my emotions do the talking. I never knew art would become such a passion until God moved and introduced me to the meditating art form of zentangle. It has been therapeutic in meditation and prayer. Only God has the divine ability to turn something so tragic into something beautiful.
