I live in Interior Alaska. Much of my work has been influenced by the dichotomies and juxtapositions of rural Alaskan living. I'm particularly interested in exploring the intersections between technology and nature, art and craft, destruction and creation. As inspiration, I look for the magical within the mundane, provoke thoughtfulness with the practical and animate the pragmatic with mischievousness. I work with any media that best suits my interests though I feel the strongest commitment to ceramics and pastel drawing, passions that have lasted over 25 years. Currently I teach drawing at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, Alaska and exhibit widely.
