I am the daughter of an Air Force Colonel who has lived all over the world, collecting and always having an interest in “things”. I attended school in Omaha NE, Ft Worth, TX and Dayton OH. After which, I worked in the visual merchandising department at Neiman Marcus in Atlanta, GA. Prior to NM, I held the same position at Maas Brothers in Tampa, FL.

Presently, I am a pre school art teacher at St. Anne’s Day School, where I have been for the past 23 years. When my schedule permits, I teach silk ribbon embroidery at Pintucks and Pinafores. For the past five years I have studied painting with Chery Baird and clay with Carol Brull at the Spruill Center. Along with my painting and clay I have worked with beads, fibers, and textiles which have led to various creations.
