Although currently based in Boston, my services extend down the east coast ... in particular Richmond, VA and Sarasota, FL.

I have been pursuing an artistic existence for as long as I can remember. I have an advanced degree in fine arts from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. I am located in Cambridge, Massachusetts; I have participated in many national art shows and sold to private collectors.  I draw quirky characters, create water-based paintings and invent small assemblages.

My creative career started in as a window dresser in Boston and New York for Henri Bendell, J. Crew and Country Road Australia. In Richmond, Va, I was the director of merchandising at Ellwood Thompson’s Natural Food Store -- responsible for producing all store visuals.  I have served as a color consultant and decorator at Sherwin Williams Paint Company. I am a graphic designer for the Retirees Association at MIT and for the Outings & Innings Group at Harvard University, where I produce all kinds of printed materials and manage websites.

I consult privately, helping homeowners choose colors, stage and redesign their homes and offices. I enjoy working one-on-one and have proven excellent customer service skills. Rearranging and transforming interiors, trying new colors and composing vignettes in rooms, on walls and surfaces just comes naturally to me. My instinct for balance, light, composition and aesthetic is inherent. I am an all-around creative thinker and an affordable alternative when your home needs a lift.
