Inside the Studio: Craft, Process and Personal Stories
There are two reasons I wear a white lab coat when I work in my studio. One is deeply personal and connects me to my father, Lennie, who was a pharmacist for 40 years. The other is about routine and how putting on my lab coat helps get my brain into creative mode. This is the story behind something you often see me wearing while I create.
For decades, I felt different but couldn't explain why. After years of questions, ongoing health challenges, and a five-month neuropsychological evaluation, I finally received answers: autism, ADHD, and dyslexia. This is my personal story of seeking understanding, finding clarity, and learning to view my life through a new lens.
