Hiya! I live in Denver with my husband, daughter and shepherd shadow.

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 discarded industrial 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 where I absored everything I could. 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.
