I was born in Binghamton, NY, and currently live just outside the Binghamton area. I have lived in many different locals, from Boston to the middle of the Adirondack Mountains, but something always brings me back to Binghamton. Sure the art scene here is a bit malnourished, and you may be asking yourself "Why would an artist live in an area with a malnourished art scene?" Well what can I say, I love it here. It's the only place that has ever felt like home, and with a low cost of living, it's a perfect place for artist's to settle and help build a great arts community

As most artists articulate so well in their bios, I have always been interested in the arts. From my early days with crayons, to my current endeavors with a Wacom Cintiq, creating visually is my passion. After high school, I continued my studies at a state university. There my mind was exposed to the infinite possibilities that exist for a creative individual. Connecting with professors, resources that go far beyond a home studio and a cornucopia of art students made for an exciting experience. I have to mention one professor that I owe a great deal to, and now consider a close personal friend, Daniel Mosner. His background is straight out of the French Academy and although I now work digitally, the techniques in oil painting that he shared have improved my work ten fold.
