Artist and educator born in Victoria, BC, and based in Brooklyn, NY, with a BA from Wesleyan University and an MFA from CUNY/Hunter College.

My drawings and paintings explore boundaries between bodies and the world, recording imprints of experience from memory.

Group and solo shows include Che Tango in Paris; 167 Wilson and the Brooklyn Academy of Music, in Brooklyn; Hunter College Galleries and Waterhouse & Dodd, in Manhattan; and the Contemporary Art Workshop in Chicago.

My education work includes a current role as Senior Manager, Academic Programs at the Jewish Museum in Manhattan, with a focus on studio, performance, and university programs. Previous museum work includes positions at the Yale University Art Gallery and the Art Institute of Chicago.
