Name: Sophia Sieber-Davis
Age: 30
Where do you call home? I live on a few acres in rural Northern California with my husband, children, dog and chickens.
Education/Career: While I haven’t received a formal degree, I have college background in art history, painting and psychology. Especially in dealing with additional illness in my early adulthood, life has led me on a creative path. I like to share how I use art as a therapeutic tool and encourage others to find liberation through artistic creation. Recently, I’ve been studying cell biology and neuroscience through online universities to gain a better understanding of my disease (as well as understanding potential treatments), and the inner workings of the body.
What is a typical day for you? I am fortunate to stay home with my kids while I pursue my online studies and create artwork. It does take a lot of self-discipline to be your own employer while simultaneously facing the challenges presented by FA (and motherhood).
