With an MFA in painting and an MA in art therapy, I round out my artistic career by teaching painting and drawing courses at Truman College and by clinical art therapy services in private practice specializing in women and the creative process.

I have exhibited my artwork for nearly three decades and have artwork in the Collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts Archive in Washington, D.C. As an active member of ARC Gallery since 1996, I’m in my second term as president of ARC and helping to take the women’s co-op forward into its 35th year.
