Back at home in New York City, she went on to study botanical art at the New York Botanical Garden and exhibit her work in American Society of Botanical Artists’ Annual International shows.

In 2019, she became involved with the New York Mycological Society, which launched her interest into the diverse and enigmatic world of Fungi.
