BIO

My artistic journey embraces change, growth, discovery, and the inherent dichotomous nature of life that continually alternates between chaos and order, disruptions and harmony, adversity and fortune. 

My work explores the delicate balance, harmony, and rhythm that emerge from life’s complexities. I find inspiration in what lies beneath the surface – both physically and emotionally. Exploring the diverse textures and structures hidden beneath my feet and my soul. I seek to uncover the delicate balance and rhythm that emerges to reflect our human struggles and complexities.

Abstracting visual references from the human form, nature, and my experiences I find myself creating multiple forms that I arrange and rearrange until they “fit” together. T As I work, I let my memories, experiences, emotions, and materials guide me. The edges, layers, transitions, tensions, and movement converge and represent the ongoing and continuous metamorphosis. Eventually, through this back-and-forth dialog, I find what “feels” right, transforming the shapes into something new.

Sculpture is the core of my practice, inspired by a search for what lies beneath the surface—both physically and emotionally. I explore textures and structures hidden underfoot and within ourselves. I seek to uncover the balance and rhythm that mirrors our shared struggles and complexities.

My process involves creating abstract forms drawn from the human figure, nature, and lived experience. I arrange and rearrange these pieces until they “fit” together. Through this back-and-forth dialog I find what “feels” right, transforming the shapes into something new.

My work is represented in the collection of the William Louis Dreyfus Foundation in New York and in other private collections in Florida, New York and Sonoma County. I received my MFA from the New York Studio School in 2008 and came home to Sonoma County in 2012. I live and work in the South A neighborhood of Santa Rosa, California.​
