I am a visual artist living in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in Central Oregon. After earning degrees in both Art and Art Education I moved to Chicago, where I taught in public high schools for several years and ran an art gallery. Upon returning to Oregon, I worked as a high school Arts and Graphics teacher for fourteen years. Now, I am a full-time artist focusing on painting, illustration, printmaking, and bookmaking.
