''I have been passionately committed to art and art education for over twenty years. I work in a variety of drawing, painting and printmaking media. My work has been exhibited extensively throughout the United States and has been published in numerous professional publications.
I have traveled extensively throughout the United States, Europe and Asia, and have received several grants -- including a Holt Foundation Grant that allowed me to work and travel in Italy and which resulted in the production of over 60 works of art. In 2009 I also took my family to Europe for just over two months for studio research and production.
I have taught studio courses from Middle School to Freshman foundation, Intermediate Drawing and Painting, and AP Studio (2D Design, 3D Design, and Drawing), and sculpture to lens arts (digital photography and digital video.) My AP students have a cumulative average of 4.25 out of a possible 5 on their portfolios.
In addition to my teaching duties, I have served on the Board of Trustees of the Leslie Powell Foundation (Lawton, Oklahoma) and as an AP Studio Arts Reader for the College Board for five years.''
