Tiffany ultimately was accepted into art school and strived to make it a career.

She worked on the highly popular television program, Extreme Home Makeover, and helped Ty Pennington with his “Secret Room” along with many others. It was on that set that Tiffany was approached to join Disney in their Scenic Department which was a true honor and fun new adventure.

Tiffany has painted murals all over Florida and many other states and can be seen in various restaurants, doctors’ offices and likely many homes near you.
