about 

As a child growing  up in Rochester, New York, land of George Eastman’s Kodak, everything pointed toward photography.  My father, and everyone else’s father, came home from work at Kodak with their pockets full of film and a new camera to try out. In retrospect, all of my work is a visual memoir, a collage, an on-going narrative of the life in and around me. 

I studied photography with Gary Winogrand at Essex Photography Center in  Essex, MA, at the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, New York, and  Lesley University Seminars in Cambridge, MA.  I hold an M.A. from Lesley University, based on a study of the creative process.

My work has been shown at the Danforth Museum of Art, Griffin Museum of Photography, Photographic Resource Center at Boston University, Panopticon Gallery, artSpace16, Bromfield Gallery, and Hess Gallery at Pine Manor College, all in the Boston area. 

I am a poet and writer with work published in anthologies and literary magazines, a writing and creativity coach, and a teacher offering workshops on creative expression using words, image and movement.
