Through her work, she reinvents herself using images, the correlation of line, shape, form, and perspective. She challenges the viewer enough to affect them, confuses them enough for them to ask the question, and then, again, challenges them enough to respond to what they see in front of them.
In the past, she has collaborated with three artists: Karen Kinney, Liz Duer, and Odenis Vitorelli.
