I was born in Wisconsin and primarily grew up in Pennsylvania and Northern Virginia. A graduate of George Washington University, I hold a BA in Visual Communications with a minor in Psychology. I have been creative all of my life (as seen in the early start photos on this page!). I was an entrepreneur in design and branding for 30 years and founded three creative agencies. I sold my last company and now focus all my creative energies on my fine art.

I have always sought out and admired art of all types. Among my influencers are Jasper Johns, Joan Mitchell, and Mark Rothko. My work was awarded an International Grand Prize and has been shown in numerous galleries and festivals throughout the mid-Atlantic. My colorful, abstract pieces adorn clothing, skateboards, private homes, and several commercial buildings.

I maintain a passion for entrepreneurship and serve as an active mentor to emerging businesses and fellow artists. I live with my husband and dogs in Annapolis, Maryland.
