I grew up in Clear Lake City, Texas. Nestled between Houston and
Galveston I experienced both coastal Texas and metropolitan life while
enjoying small town America. I spent my childhood vacations with
family in Estes Park, Colorado. The abundance of wildlife and the
access to the beauty of the Rocky Mountain National Forest were a
sharp contrast to the concrete jungle the Houston area had become.
I attended the University of Arkansas, where I met my husband. We
lived throughout the South for sixteen years; and raised four
children. Our college years in the Ozark Mountains led us to search
for a similar college town to settle down in for the remainder of our
careers; that journey led us to Pocatello, Idaho where we have lived
for the past fourteen years.
I have spent the last six years studying sculpture at Idaho State
University. I operate as a studio assistant within the sculpture
department where I explore new patina techniques and cast bronzes for
commission. My work is decidedly figurative; I strive to create
pieces that imbue a sense of fluidity and movement. Living along the
Southern coast has given me a sense of the natural rhythm that
encompasses us, encouraging each of us to become more deeply connected
to the world around us.
