About

I am an arts administrator, educator, and artist. I have lived in the art communities of Los Angeles, New York City, and Philadelphia and I have worked with notable fine art printers, which include Gemini GEL and SOLO Press. I had the honor of printing the works of David Hockney, John Baldessari, Nancy Spero, and Francoise Gilot.

My graduate studies were completed in 1996 at Cranbrook Academy of Art. My undergraduate studies were completed at Alfred University.

Most recently I worked as Assistant Director of the Snyderman Gallery in Philadelphia, PA. The gallery specializes in contemporary glass, fiber, and craft art. Some of the artists I worked with at Snyderman included: The de la Torre Brothers, Paul Chaleff, Inez Storer, Rick Beck, Garry Knox Bennett, and Ron Kent.

While in Philadelphia, I also managed the Powel House. This historic house museum was the home of the mayor of Philadelphia during the American Revolution. The museum holds significant history and artifacts from the founding of our nation.

My printmaking and drawings have been exhibited at gallery Space1026.
