MFA: University of California, Berkeley; BA: University of California, Davis

I have been painting and drawing all my life. My work contains imagery from the natural world, other art (particularly Surrealism), comics and life in general. The work is playful and constantly evolving. It is my great joy in life to create every day.

I was lucky to grow up in Cambridge, Massachusetts where, from the age of 12, I was able to take advantage of high quality museums and the programs that they offered.

Although I often return to drawing from life, the inner world of thoughts and dreams is where I reside the most.
