I grew up in New York City. After university, I lived and worked in Florence, Venice, New England, and Los Angeles. For the past 24 years, I have lived and worked in Italy, first in Naples and more recently in Rome. I work in many different media to express a variety of themes. I look forward to continuing to combine materials and explore new media. This website is an evolving space where I can share my work.

Sono cresciuta a New York City. Dopo l’università, ho vissuto e lavorato a Firenze, Venezia, New England, e Los Angeles. Negli ultimi 24 anni ho vissuto e lavorato in Italia, prima a Napoli e più recentemente a Roma. Lavoro con molti media diversi per esprimere una varietà di temi. Non vedo l’ora di continuare a combinare materiali ed esplorare nuovi linguaggi espressivi. Questo sito è uno spazio in evoluzione dove posso condividere il mio lavoro.
