Sony’s personal journey in the world of fine art began when she received a portfolio-based scholarship to The Rhode Island School of Design.  From that moment on, she realized that artistic expression would be a life-long pursuit. 

Sony went on to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Skidmore College with a concentration in Painting.  Later, she obtained an Associate’s degree in Graphic Design from Gibbs College, adding yet another dimension to her repertoire of skills.  Sony worked as a publishing and editorial associate for a children’s book publishing house where she also served as a display artist and graphic designer.  Currently, she works as a freelance artist on contract based graphic design projects and is preparing new work for upcoming art exhibitions.  Sony is a new member of ESCAPE and is thrilled to be a part of a community based art education program.  “Expression through art has been my life’s passion.  Art offers me a vehicle for personal growth and allows me to help others and find their own artistic voice and identity.”
