I studied art at Rhode Island School of Design. My love of color and pattern led me to surface pattern design and New York City. Freelancing in the fashion industry as a print designer and fashion illustrator, allowed me to continue to learn various art practices. Between gigs, I studied sculpture and painting at the New York Studio School; printmaking at SVA, and fashion at F.I.T.
In 2021, I moved to Rhode Island. My tiny house is not much bigger than my studio apartment in Manhattan! But I live near the park and the ocean which provides endless inspiration and sources of comfort.
For many years I bounced back and forth between busy Manhattan where I lived and worked as a fashion illustrator/ surface designer and a peaceful seaside town in Rhode Island. I loved the contrast. Each environment making the other brighter and more felt.
