I am an interdisciplinary visual artist raised in Somerville, New Jersey. I have a BS in Biology and an MFA in Fine Art/Illustration, and have exhibited varied art forms since 1978.

As a Peace Corps volunteer in Colombia, I taught art, science and Spanish at a farm school, and later worked with families of coffee growers. Inspired by drawing for the Peace Corps Health Handbook and for a Bogota cardiologist, I decided to resume my study of art.
I explore new techniques, take specialized workshops and enjoy working in various mediums, focusing on environment, politics or abstract works. My jewelry has been exhibited in Washington, Oregon, Beijing, China; Vilnius and Palanga, Lithuania and in Legnica and Gdansk, Poland. I am currently an Artist-in-Residence at Seattle Print Arts Editions Studio.

While consistently generating and exhibiting mixed-media work and jewelry, I curated over 50 exhibitions, served on local and out-of-state selection panels and had five solo exhibitions. I participate in several arts organizations.

ACES is a wonderful opportunity for artists of color and I am pleased and honored to help bring it about.
