I was born during the Blizzard of 1978 on February 9th in Boston, MA. My father still tells the story about coming home from his business, the day before I was born, and having to leave his van on Rte. 128 and hitchhike back to Stoughton, with a dozen eggs my mother asked him to pick up. He made it all the way home without even breaking an egg! The next morning a few neighbors helped shovel a pathway from the driveway to the street in order for them to drive to the hospital. Even though they got stopped by the police because the roads were closed and had to be escorted into Boston, they made it to the hospital in plenty of time.

Currently, I am an Assistant Professor of Art at Webster University in St. Louis, MO.   I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Connecticut and my Master of Fine Arts from the Ohio State University.  My art has been exhibited in various solo and group shows throughout the United States.
