She holds a BFA from The College of New Rochelle, graduating Summa Cum Laude, and an Associates in Science from Naugatuck Valley Community College, graduating Magma Cum Laude with a focus in Psychology. Her work has been shown all over the country, most prominently in New York City, Winston-Salem, NC, Paonia, Colorado, and Los Angeles, CA.
