Biography:I have been teaching community classes and workshops for 20 plus years. I graduated from UCSC with a degree in Aesthetic Studies specializing in photography and have been taking classes since to keep up with the changing trends in photography. I periodically exhibit my work, I curate Localvision, a group photography exhibit made up of people who have taken my classes, I am a member of the NPPA, I volunteer at the Center for Photographic Art in Carmel and am on the advisory board of the Foundation of Photographic Preservation. I believe strongly in community art and that the study of art should be accessible and affordable for everyone.
