Hiya! I live in Denver with my many families.

My work has spanned a lifetime, with many phases, series and materials, and many a career change to learn another new material or process. I started with painting, printmaking, and collaborative installation with materials like hundreds of pounds of bee’s wax, broken televisions, dirt and medical equipment. Determined to use my art degree to make a living, I got jobs in fields I wanted to learn more about. Always having been interested in engineering, I worked in architectural fabrication shops in the SF Bay Area and learned it all. Every kind of welding and brazing, plasma cutting, fitting and fabricating. I worked in some high end shops, designing and building custom architectural projects all over Northern California. I’ve always enjoyed being part of collective group projects, and making bigger pieces that I could never make or even conceive of alone. So many events and performances back in the late Eighties and early Nineties in Denver that were never documented or photographed! I have some art installed in a Masonic lodge. Some collective projects I am involved with, I can’t even talk about!

Currently, I am creating wearable and functional sculpture. I have jewelry pieces in Gold, Sterling silver, bronze and steel showing at Balefire Goods in Olde Town Arvada. I am also building some larger installation pieces and musical sculptures in my shop I built with my husband, Will at our home in Denver. I currently teach full time public high school jewelry/metal-smithing, sculpture and ceramics.
