I am a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design. In addition to my art, I work as the Director of the Focusing Series, a professional development series offering affordable education to artists of all skill levels, solopreneurs, small business owners, and creative entrepreneurs. I have over a decade of experience working with local small businesses as a consultant. And often students want individual attention beyond the classroom, so I offer Coaching Sessions as well. The Focusing Series offers local workshops (in Jamaica Plain) and we teach for various co-ops, art associations, guilds, and educational facilities. Some of the groups I have worked with: The Arts & Business Council of Greater Boston, Fort Point, Arts Worcester, Danforth Art Museum, Belmont Artist Association, The Eliot School/Jamaica Plain Arts Council, and New England Wax.  My art career is sustainable due to ongoing exhibition opportunities and online sales. I have many loyal fans of my art, some have curated a sizable private collection of my paintings. Connecting with others through my art is my greatest joy.
