With a formal education in sculpture and design (OCAD, BDes in Material Art and Design – textiles, and technical training as a goldsmith from the Jewellery Arts Program at George Brown College) her understanding and knowledge of raw material and material processes together form the foundation that supports her artistic practice as well as her career as a practicing goldsmith/jewellery designer and educator.

Her work has been featured in exhibitions and publications across Canada and internationally in countries such as Austria, France, Romania, China, and the United States. She is an alumni of Harbourfront Centre’s Artist-in-Residence program (Metal), located in the city of Toronto, where she continues to create work in a shared/mixed discipline studio space in the heart of the city.
