Montclair, New Jersey

In my role as a digital arts instructor, through partnerships with MakerBot and the United States Army Corps of Engineers at Picatinny Aresenal, I served as a leader in the implementation of a districtwide 3D printing initiative, the first of its kind in NJ. Through this initiative I had the opportunity to successfully train fellow teachers in the district in both software and hardware applications and techniques for 3D Design & 3D Printing. In addition, I also performed the duties of web coordinator for multiple schools in the district and in the classroom, developed a computer science curriculum and original classes such as Creative Coding using Processing/Java and P5.js.

As a content creator, I've accumulated more than twenty years’ of experience photographing and designing for both commercial and editorial clients. I enjoy creating still life and lifestyle images for use in magazines, advertisements and online marketing and have been commissioned by small business owners and large brands alike. Though I enjoy my own creative process, I’m always open to client ideas and input and value working collaboratively with just about anyone. I find few things more satisfying than creating the perfect image for my clients. I also enjoy applying my design skills and background to developing websites for my clients whenever the need arises.
