Fresh start...

Picking up where I left off years ago with a new textile piece which will be an abstract landscape.

The patterns are pulled off of the Rhino renderings and then sewn on my home machine. The final piece will not be as rounded because of shrinkage from the seaming.

About Me

My first bachelors degree was in business/marketing from Georgetown University in Washington, DC. After 6 years working as a copywriter in traditional and interactive advertising agencies in New York, Hong Kong and Boston it was time for a change. What I really was craving was to make things with my hands. I'd always wanted to go to the Rhode Island School of Design (who wouldn't after finding out that the Talking Heads met there?) and found myself in the industrial design department. What was really enjoyable was that this program combined technology, math and precision with fine art, form and material study. I received a BFA with honors and worked as a designer for Pink Inc, a tensile fabric structures company in NY. Now I am happily working for myself on a variety of sculpture and design projects.
