I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Painting from The University of Tampa in 2001. Painting and drawing is my main area of concentration, but I do incorporate mixed media and sculpture into my work. I have exhibited my work in museums and galleries regionally and nationally. I have participated in public art commissions and my artwork is in several corporate collections.

Aside from art making, I worked as a fulltime art educator for seven years, teaching elementary through secondary levels.

I hold a Florida State Teaching Certificate for grades K- 12.
