I am a self-taught artist who is interested in the biological ramifications of humankind’s drive to modify ourselves as well as our environment. Before I started my career as an artist, I was a park ranger and worked in natural resource conservation. I feel very lucky to currently have work included in many prominent collections, including Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington DC, the Museum of Art and Design in New York, Crystal Bridges Museum in Arkansas, Project Space 176 in London, The Progressive Collection, 21C Museum in Louisville, KY, and the Ripley’s Museum of Hollywood, CA. In addition to my own work I sometimes collaborate with Andy Diaz Hope, as well as other artists, on projects and installations.

I am currently represented by:
Gallery Wendi Norris in San Francisco
and Bergarde Gallery in The Netherlands

Please note that, like many things in life, this artist's statement and website is a work in progress.
