Artist Background
I’ve always been fascinated with 3D art in all forms. To be able to reuse unwanted materials and turn them into 3D works of art is a real pleasure to me.
With degrees in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry and an MBA, I’m able to pull together many skills and experiences to be a successful artist in a medium that I really enjoy.

I’m never sure how I will use the pieces I find but I know that they are pleasing to look at and I keep a real stash of glass for all projects!

Hiking, kayaking, gardening, and travel give me mental images that fuel my creative work. My friends and family give me a positive perspective on the artistic process. Working with glass is a passion, everything I create is a joy. I know I’ve finished a piece when I smile spontaneously.
