Biography

A native Californian, I taught dance in colleges and universities around the country for 20 years, and then taught ballroom dance for another decade here in Columbus. I began taking photography classes “for fun” at OSU and found I had a deep interest in creating images. For the past few years I have studied with Ua Chamberlain both privately and in group settings. My interests in photography include landscapes, flowers, abstracts and portraits. My love of dance and movement are reflected in my projects.

“North…Earth

South…Fire

East…Air

West…Water”
