I started off my journey at Rhode Island School of Design and State University of NY at Purchase. Afterwards I started working in a small advertising agency doing graphics. I then learned computer graphics at my next position, making presentation slides for such companies as IBM. Expressing myself on the computer led to expanding my work as a fine artist.  I worked as a fine artist with shows and gallery showings throughout my life. My experiences have led to an interest in Art Therapy. I have signed up for this certification course for my own knowledge and emotional awareness.
