Institution/Business Type: Artist / Creative (Individual)

I am a photo-based visual artist, full-time senior web designer at UMass Boston and parent of Boston Public School graduates. I am available to lead photo workshops where all you need is a cellphone.  I am passionate about creating public art projects that celebrate nature especially in the urban environment. What are the small moments of inspiration around us every day?  I take original photos and then transform them with digital tools, embracing a graphic design style for public art. 

Thank you to NEFA for supporting the intergenerational collaborative print project I  co-organized for exhibit in  MBTA trains. Thank you to the City of Boston for the opportunity to paint a utility box - check it out - corner of Arlington & Market street in Brighton Center.
