I earned a Bachelor and Master's degree from the University of South Florida in Art Education and Fine Arts. Since then, I have been teaching art for 28 years from Pre-K through college. I am also a practicing Artist with juried art shows throughout Lee County.
Originally, I am from White Plains, New York, and have lived in several cities, states and countries. I have one daughter, 6 grandchildren, and 5 great grandsons, a Great Dane, and a Cockatiel. My" claim to fame" is that I created the signage and roof graphics for the 1982 World’s Fair which was held in Knoxville, Tennessee.
