About

Born and raised in Chicago, I arrived to be in the spaces of Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico in 2000. My work is in private collections, shown locally, nationally and has been published by Phaidon Press. I am a recipient of NEA and NEH grants. My graduate work was completed at the University of Chicago; my undergraduate work completed at School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). I have taught for the Art Education Department of School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Art Department of Colorado State University, the University of Wyoming and Naropa University. After serving as Lead Faculty for Visual and Media Arts in CADHu (Department of Creative Arts Design and Humanities) at Front Range Community College in Ft. Collins, Colorado, I have returned to my work as an adjunct faculty member which provides focused time for my studio practice and research. My studios are located in Santa Fe, NM. and Masonville, CO.
