I am a fine artist with a BFA in Painting with a minor in Sustainability from Massachusetts College of Art and Design in Boston. My paintings concern my passion for wildlife and birdwatching with underlying themes of ecology and environmental sustainability.I have work experience as a gallery sales associate, a contractor for an art museum, a curator, an art teacher, a teacher's assistant, and a studio assistant. In college I formed a birdwatching club and served as a student representative on the Sustainability in the Curriculum Committee for two years, both of which gave me valuable skills in leadership and organization. I have exhibited work in shows across the northeast and have won such awards as the George Nick Prize, the Marcia Lloyd Auction Award, and the Gamblin Paint Supply Award.
