I have been an artist my whole life. I don’t think there has ever been a time I was not brainstorming a new art concept. Art is a form of non-verbal self-expression. It is cathartic by helping me release difficult emotions and instill healing. When I am working on a project, I am not thinking about all the stresses in in my family life or any work-related concerns. I think the act of doing creative artistic things helps to keep parts of my brain active and to be able to use creativity in all aspects of my life. Importantly, it helps prevent job burnout so I can continue to support my teams with their direct patient care.
