My life as a maker has taken me on a long and varied path filled with wondrous discoveries. For decades I was a designer/maker of fine furniture. Such work was exhibited widely, and received many awards. In the mid 1980s, I stepped away from the studio to continue my studies, concentrating on Industrial Design in the graduate department of Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY.

These studies were then followed up with a Designer-in-Residence at the Tasmanian Institute of Technology in Australia. It was during this time that I made a commitment to "one day turn my attention to making sculpture full time." That day came about 20 years later plunging me into the wacky world of art leaving the comfy product gig in the rearview mirror.

Most of my works use found objects as well as the addition of various tooled pieces of wood, metal, glass, plastics, and any other material I can wrap my hands around. These pieces have been warmly received and supported by my fellow artists because of their whimsy, humor, and quite possibly the shared understanding that there is no university tenure track bound art professorship pulling out of port here.
