For the last decade, I have created mixed-material
sculpture, site murals, and ceramic objects for private clients
and juried exhibits in the Mid-Atlantic region, including
in Washington, Philadelphia and New York.
Born in Washington, I spent ten years of my early life in
the deserts of Jordan and Saudi Arabia, which inspire my interest
in natural forms and earthen palettes to this day.
My MBA is from the University of Maryland and
BA in International Relations from the University of Virginia.
Graduate level ceramic courses at Hood College in Maryland
round out my education.
2009 saw several exciting developments, including
an art residency, a grant, and becoming a board member of
the Washington Sculptors Group. My summer residency at Rocky
Mountain Recycling, a metal scrap yard in Denver, gave me
the opportunity to work in new metals, including stainless
steel, lead, and copper, while introducing me to oxy-acetylene
torch reduction techniques. The DC Commission on the Arts
and Humanities grant supported an exhibition of a new body
of work, printing micro and macro images on steel.
