Carolyn Barreiro – McKeesport, PA
My name is Carolyn Barreiro. I’m a 49 year old happily married fur mom. I’m a lover of nature, mindfulness, and all things creative.
After years of formal training in fine arts and graphic design decades ago I had left art behind for a career in administration. I never stopped being creative but with my MS diagnosis at 44, things changed. My capabilities changed and so did my perspective which paved a path back to my roots and what I enjoy most. Art gives me purpose when it feels like MS takes it away.
