My work: Artist and Teacher
I spend too much time: Being outside in nature!
I'm a Tucson artist and thrilled to share Bikehaven with you. You'll find five murals that I painted in the home. I've lived in AZ for over 20 years and love sharing Tucson with our guests as a Certified Tourism Ambassador. My husband/co-host, Jeff Brack, and I designed a home that showcases our love of cycling and the desert. Jeff is a University of Arizona Alum, and I teach there! Although hands-off during your stay, we are just a message away.
