I received my BA from Brandeis University in 1983 and subsequently studied at The School of Visual Arts, New York City and Massachusetts College of Art in Boston. As a designer, I was a two time winner of the Louie Award, given by the National Greeting Card Association in Washingtion D.C. and runner up "Card of the Year" at the International Stationery Show at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City. As a Book Artist, my work has been collected, exhibited and published. I freelance as a writer and a graphic designer and am a proud mother of three.
