“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there’s no path and leave a trail.”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

I hold an MFA in Photography and Related Media from The School of Visual Arts in New York City with a focus on theory, criticism and exhibition curation. Additionally, I possess BA in English with a minor in Spanish from The College of Wooster in Ohio. My special interests have been mentoring and fostering the careers of emerging fine-art and commercial talent and small business brand development.
I'm a native New Yorker currently living in Yarmouth, Maine most recently working at Bowdoin College as career advisor in the Arts & Communications arena.
When I'm not working, I'm out exploring the beauty of Maine with my dog Luna, hiking, cross country skiing, gardening, knitting, and cooking.
