“A great human revolution in the life of one person can change the destiny of humankind and our planet.” – Daisaku Ikeda. Even a small pebble makes a ripple in the sand.

I enjoy taking all kinds of pictures. Due to physical limitations, I tend to stick to subjects in my daily life and environment. I am slowly working on my own website and making cards which I sell locally and to friends. My day job is mom and offering support to families dealing with autism. (More information here or here )

Thank you so much for stopping by and browsing my work!
