My passion for horses and creating art began as a young girl in Pennsylvania. At around age six, I experienced an event that changed my life. I rode a pony at the Philadelphia Zoo. Those five minutes began a life-long need to know these amazing creatures. Throughout my childhood, I spent most of my time drawing, riding or learning about horses.

My higher education began with an Associates Degree in Equine Science from Delaware Valley College in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Since my spare time was spent drawing, I decided to gain formal art training and pursue a degree in art. In 1999, I earned a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts (Communication Design/Illustration) at Kutztown University in Kutztown, Pennsylvania.

Currently, I reside in New Jersey with my husband, Erik, my dog and my horse not too far away. Over the past few years, Iíve been painting watercolor commissioned horse portraits and creating abstract figurative art. In 2006, I joined the Equine Art Guild.
