As an artist and designer, I am especially interested in the intersection of new media, art, communication, and the way that we as a society express cultural truths and fictions. I am influenced by theorists Tufte and Lakoff, as well as artists like Fred Wilson, Guillermo Gomez-Peña, Barbara Kruger and Marcel Duchamp.

In the past 15 years, I have been an educator, graphic designer, writer, web designer and a projectionist. I ran my own graphic and web design company in San Francisco from 1995-2001, working for a variety of non-profit, film and arts-related companies.

As an artist, proximity to advertising and mass media has given me the ability to graft my own narratives onto familiar plotlines and archetypes as a form of "cultural counter-point" to assumed notions of identity, gender, context and memory. By blurring the lines between certainty and doubt, I create opportunities for the imagination to play.

I recieved a graduate fellowship to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Department of Electronic Arts in 2003, and graduated with an MFA two years later. Currently, I am an Educator at Zeum in downtown San Francisco. Please take a look at the Projects/Clients section for examples of my work.
