My background is in installation art, photography, painting and printmaking. The subject of many of my project based artworks revolve around everyday life events and interactions. Illustrating our environment and interactions with each other and finding a new perspective on everyday challenges such as mental health and fitting into society. I feel that if something is happening to me, it is also happening on some level to thousands of other people. Whether they are witness, conspirator or victim, so many experiences are shared experiences.
Hamilton native and Ontario College of Art graduate, I have lived, worked and played in Toronto, Berlin, Ottawa, Pittsburgh, Rotterdam, Burlington and Hamilton. Alongside my arts practice I have worked as an artist and educator at the Andy Warhol Museum, Art Gallery of Ontario, Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh and Villa Zebra in Rotterdam. I currently work for McMaster University as Educator Lead for Art at McMaster in the Faculty of Humanities, and as a teacher at DVSA, the Art Gallery of Hamilton and the Art Gallery Burlington.
My arts practice has earned me a Mid-atlantic Arts Fellowship in photography(U.S.A), two Hamilton Enrichment Fund Grants and an Ontario Arts Council Grant. I am a co-founder and co-host of the Art to Go Podcast which has been recognized by the Hamilton Arts Awards.
