Maika currently practices at JHCP Canton Crossing and at the Johns Hopkins Outpatient Center as an Ambulatory Care Clinical Pharmacist.
Art has always been her favorite hobby since childhood. In middle school she took sketching classes and taught art classes at her local library. It was not until high school and pharmacy school that she decided to pursue acrylic painting and digital painting. She no longer takes any formal lessons and everything she does now is a result of experimentation.

Painting
I started this piece during the 2016 Snowzilla. The original version felt very flat and I was dissatisfied with the end product. It was not until about a year later that I decided to rework the painting by adding molding paste and using bright, saturated colors. I am much happier with the second iteration of my work.
