After completing a BFA degree in Metalsmithing and Sculpture at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana, I decided to continue my education in pursuit of a Masters degree. Finding it hard to leave the Midwest, I attended the University of Kansas, graduating with a concentration in Metalwork. Currently Lafayette, LA is where I call home, spending time on personal artistic pursuits and teaching courses as an Assistant Professor of Metalwork and Jewelry at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.
