I was born in Portland Maine. Throughout my adolescence I attended private art lessons with Ester Barney. After graduating from High School, I attended the Portland School of Art, now called Maine College of Art. I studied silver smithing, jewelry, and painting. I operated a successful silver jewelry design and creation venture through the 1990s.I have returned to my love of painting and drawing, and I am currently producing and selling my works in the Southern Maine area.
