In 2013 she and her son moved from Brooklyn back to Boise, ID where she, her 8 year old son Josiah, and golden retriever Apple now reside. ~ In 1985 Noi Thannao and his family and I immigrated to the United States, At the time, he did not speak any English and he was too young to read or write in his native language. When given paper and pencil his first instinct was to draw. He has continued to do so after all these years. In 2015 Noi Thannao further developed these skills and graduated from Idaho State University with a BAS in Graphic Design with an emphasis in fine art.
