I am a Cleveland-born abstract painter based in Rockport, Massachusetts. I spent my early life visiting family in Europe which fostered an enduring fascination with history and architecture. After attending McGill University in Montréal for Art History and English, I worked in advertising and marketing in Toronto, Brussels and Boston, before starting and raising my family. I am now able to commit full-time to art, and I work in oils, acrylics, fiber and ink. I am a lifelong student of art, art history and a frequent traveler, but find endless inspiration in the nature, calm beauty and history of Cape Ann. My joy comes from curiosity and a desire to constantly learn and grow, and I hope this is reflected in my work.
