Since early childhood, growing up in St. Louis, MO, my first passion has been art. I have spent many years juggling my love for painting with the demands of a full-time career in graphic design. I have spent the past 25 years as owner, art director/designer and manager of Graphic Design Group in Conroe,Texas.

Many of my logo designs have become icons for local government and private industries.

Awards: Award of Merit from International Design Conference (Aspen, Colorado), four Telstar Art Awards for Excellence in Communications, six Catalyst Awards, the Texas Alliance for Education Arts Award, and was selected in the Texas Fine Art Association: Juried Texas Realism Competition. A prisma color still life entitled, ”London Flat” was selected by Tom Livesay (Director Dallas Museum of Art) for the T.F.A.A. State of Texas Tour.
