Biography:
Born in Philadelphia, PA

Education:
East Carolina University in Greenville, NC majored in Communication and minored in Art.

Statement:
I have eclectic taste. That's why I'm so fascinated by the usage of mixed media and collage. The reason I like these mediums is because of the outcome of combining various elements, creating several textures and color to evoke a thought and mood. It's like a pizza with everything on it. Once you take that first bite, you're inundated with flavor. And that's what I strive for in my work.

I work with assemblage, collage, mixed-media and works on paper. I use lots of found objects, drawings, print outs, text usage, graphite, color pencil, gouache, acrylic, pastel, etc. My pieces deal with life itself, i.e., the people we are, what we create, our capabilities and the issues with which we deal. My premise is to lure the viewer in. Once they're in, they will be placed in a position to reflect on and question their ethics, be it disquieting or placid.
