BACKGROUND
I was born and raised in Plattsburgh, NY. I received my B.A. in Studio Art from Plattsburgh State University in 1998 and my M.F.A. in Sculpture from the University of Maryland in 2001. I served as an artist-in-residence at the Johnson Atelier Technical Institute of Sculpture and have taught a variety of studio art classes at Plattsburgh State University, the University of Maryland, the College of Charleston, and Rhodes College. My work has been exhibited nationally in galleries such as Conner Contemporary Art Gallery in Washington DC and Hun Gallery in NYC, juried shows such as Navy Pier Walk in Chicago, and sculpture parks such as Cedarhurst Sculpture Park in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. I currently reside in Germantown, TN.
