Bio:

Since I was a child, the artist in me has been expressing itself through many of the creative mediums.

Raised by an artistic father and a seamstress mother, I loved to sketch and sew. I went from doll clothes to couturing my wardrobe to costuming musicals for community theatre.

After majoring in Art in college, I focused my love of fabrics,color and design into a career as an Interior Designer.

Recently, my playful inner child re-awakened and lit a fire in me to resurrect the whimsical characters that I used to draw on custom greeting cards in my college days. Almost effortlessly I started to sketch a whole new cast of characters. A plot developed and a children's picture book materialized. I am now in the find-a-publisher/agent stage with this book.

I am also currently chairing the Image and Arts Council of Troy (I/ACT). Through that association I have been doing murals in Troy Schools with other Troy artists.
