Artist Statement/Bio

Raised in Upstate New York surrounded by nature, open fields of corn and an abundant variety of wildlife I found a love for photography and showing what I saw through the lens. In High School I achieved my first paying job with the Senior Portraits of my Graduating Class. During my 20’s I traveled to all by two States in the United States and seven Countries photographing Endangered Species.

I attended Ithaca College obtaining my BFA and Rhode Island Institute of Design achieving my MFA. This knowledge combined with degrees in Child Psychology, Marine Biology Science and Biodiversities and Computer Science have only furthered my abilities to create a diverse selection of Photographs and enhanced Images.

In 1987 I did my first Gallery Showing at The Copley Society in Boston, MA. It was a successful show and I enjoyed being able to share my work with the City of Boston. I am now preparing to show my work at The Law Library in Northampton, MA. And have applied to The Old Courthouse Gallery in Northampton, MA, as well. I will be presenting my Portfolio to Bonni Benrubi Gallery in New York City in February of 2009 in an effort to obtain a Gallery Show there in the Summer of 2009.
