My college work earned me a scholarship to Chouinard Art Institute (now known as Cal Arts) studying design, illustration and painting.

In my career as a graphic designer I worked as an illustrator/designer for advertising agencies and many major magazines. Also during this time I conceived and developed a series of educational computer games on the environment. Researching for this project further developed my interest and love of wildlife and their habitats.

The first “one person” show I had was on endangered species at the Cypress Gallery in Carmel California.
