After graduating from Louisiana State University, she earned a Doctor of Medicine degree from Tulane University School of Medicine. She completed a radiology residency at New York University School of Medicine as well as a fellowship in nuclear medicine at Harvard Medical School. Her career changed direction when she enrolled in the Art Students League of New York and studied under Harvey Dinnerstein, David Leffel, and Robert Maione.[1] In 1998 she moved to Hawaii and began painting Native Hawaiian women. She emphasizes the bodily form and solidity of her substantial subjects[2] as in Strike a Pose III, from the collection of the Honolulu Museum of Art.
