Artist Statement
I am an active studio artist residing in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I began quilting in 1976 while raising a family and working as an administrator at Dartmouth College. In 2002 I became a full-time artist and began creating art quilts for exhibition. My work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and is part of a number of corporate and private collections.
