Your time is valuable, thank you for stopping by.

I am a graphic designer for over twenty-five years; I live and work in Pennsylvania—northeastern PA and the Lehigh Valley. I have been an educator for the last 15 years, teaching graphic design at Penn State Lehigh Valley and Moravian University. (LinkedIn). I am proud to be listed via juried acceptance in techspressionism index list reflecting my collage art practice.

Fun-facts:

  • I love iced-coffee & cats… tomatoes-meh (unless on a sandwich — I know, it doesn’t make sense).

  • On downtime you will find me binge-watching Judge Judy and Dateline reruns.

  • Even though I love design, my “what do you want to be when you grow up” answer was lawyer.

  • I wrote a poem that was published in Andre Agassi’s first fan club newsletter (ca 1989)—the AKA Club (Andre Kirk Agassi) it was organized by his sister right before his Nike endorsement.

  • I can identify all types of needlepoint due to my first graphic design job creating packaging, catalog and pop-displays at a craft brand. The terms: cross stitch, stamped/counted cross stitch, embroidery, crewel, felt, quilting, are forever emblazoned in my lexicon (even though I cannot do this craft!).

  • I twirl a baton (I was a majorette in high school); I still twirl for fun — and, I am still quite good (!).
