I’m Carina, a real human artist celebrating the whimsical minds and lovely imperfections of life. I graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design and am currently an Art Therapy grad student at New York University. I strive to explore the therapeutic aspect of the art-making process in clinical settings and use storytelling to promote joy and connect with others. My artwork revolves around the core principles of play, exploration, and compassion. 

As a prospective art therapist, I hope to develop better compassion for clients and empower them to discover their unique strengths, ability to navigate challenges, and capacity for growth and healing.
