I am a painter and mixed media artist focused on the abstracted natural world and imagined landscapes. My work is highly influenced by the colors and patterns found in mid-century textiles and my 15+ year career working for the modern furniture company Knoll.

I have a BFA from Georgetown University where I received the Misty Dailey Award for artistic excellence. Additionally I have studied painting and drawing at the University of Paris, the Art Students League in New York and the NYC Crit Club. I also have an MBA from Stanford University. Most recently I have shown my work through Studio Montclair, the Drawing Galaxy, the Woodstock School of Art and Wired Gallery.
