Artist Bio

Following the creative path in life has been my journey. 

I have always enjoyed art and design. 

From a young age I have embraced my artsy-fartsy passions beginning with 

drawing, painting and endless hours of drawing on my chalkboard 

while sitting on the floor of my bedroom…making a big mess. 

This thunderous road I have traveled has lead me to express my creativity in various ways. 

Drawing, painting, photography and creating jewelry are my destinations on this road of life. 

Sometimes I even surprise myself where these two lanes will take me.

I was born in southwestern Pennsylvania with the creative passion 

but my formal training comes from the years I spent at the 

Art Institute of Pittsburgh studying Visual Communications. 

Each and every thing I learned at AIP…. color, composition, style, design… 

I continue to use to this day and influences each project I work on. 

I could not be more thankful for the time I spent getting my degree 

and the mentoring from the instructors who encouraged my artistic foundation.
