I received my BFA and BA in Art Education from Western State College in 2006 and later a MFA in printmaking from New Mexico State University in 2010. After which I joined the Peace Corps along with my wife and lived in Africa for 2 years.
My passion in life is simple and that is creativity. I think that everything can use a creative solution and everyday I look forward to that challenge. I have two goals within art and that is creating for myself, and teaching it to others. The visual arts teach us how to be accepting, diverse, an individual, a problem solver, a hard worker and many other important traits. Its place in society and how it is received is the responsibility of the artist and educators.
