Welcome!

I practice living inquiry an artist/researcher/teacher by facilitating the arts as an accessible and engaging way to promote reflection, challenge dominant ideologies, and convey complexity. I share time between my home state of Florida and the North Woods of Vermont with my partner of three decades, our family, and our companions Grace, Kitten, Ally & Roux.

My educational background is in Art History, Education and the Arts. I hold a PhD in Education from the University of Central Florida with a research focus in ritual in the creative process, an MAT from Rollins College and a BA in Art History from the University of Richmond. I’ve had the joy of teaching pre-K through graduate school and now enjoy returning to a student life while I work on my MFA in Studio Art.

My artistic and teaching practice is process focused and my art is interested in creating functional objects that ensoul interactions with daily life.

Living inquiry is an educational and psychological framework that treats life and learning as an ongoing process of exploration rather than a search for fixed answers. It encourages individuals—often children, educators, or researchers—to continually notice, question, and adjust their understanding of the world as new experiences emerge.
