A Michigan native,  I earned my B.F.A. degree in Illustration with an emphasis in Photography from Kendall College of Art and Design in Grand Rapids, MI. After graduation I continued to produce artwork as a freelance graphic designer, volunteered with the AmeriCorps program to launch Warehouse 508, a teen arts center in Albuquerque, NM and taught as a licensed middle school special education teacher.  I also had a brief but exciting stint as an extra (S.H.I.E.L.D Agent) in the small, indie film: Marvel’s The Avengers. Currently, I work as an Admissions Counselor for Columbus College of Art and Design.
