I discovered the Zentangle Method in 2019 shortly after moving to The Villages, Florida, and it truly changed my life. At first, I was simply looking for a creative outlet, but I quickly realized Zentangle was so much more than drawing beautiful patterns—it was a mindful practice that helped me slow down, relax, and enjoy the process of creating one stroke at a time. That experience inspired me to become a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT) in 2020, and I’ve been sharing the joy of Zentangle ever since.Teaching is my favorite part of what I do. I love watching students discover that they really can create beautiful artwork, even if they believe they “aren’t artistic.” Seeing their confidence grow and their stress melt away is incredibly rewarding. Every class reminds me that creativity isn’t about perfection—it’s about enjoying the journey.Over the past several years, I’ve taught hundreds of students through community classes, workshops, Zoom programs, private events, and retreats. I also founded Love2Tangle, where I create immersive learning experiences that bring people together through art, relaxation, and community. My annual Zentangle retreat attracts Certified Zentangle Teachers and enthusiasts from around the country for two days of inspiration, creativity, and connection.I’m a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT) and have studied art throughout my life, including coursework at Hope College, the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit and The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. I received the “Most Promising Art Student” award at Hope College. My classes are designed to be welcoming for everyone—from complete beginners to experienced tanglers.One thing people are often surprised to learn is that Zentangle isn’t about talent—it’s about trust. There are no mistakes, only opportunities. That philosophy has influenced not only my artwork but also the way I approach life, and it’s something I hope every student takes home with them.I’ve been honored to have my work and events featured in local media, including The Villages Daily Sun, and I continue to share my passion through classes, community programs, and special events. My goal is simple: to help others discover the joy, mindfulness, and confidence that can begin with a single pen stroke.
