Profile
I have created 3 Commissions for The City of New York. At the Brooklyn Navy Yard “The Brooklyn Navy Yard Park” and the "Railroad Track Bike/ Motorcycle Racks". I have repuposed the History of the Yard into these two projects. My sculpture "Rail Riders' Throne is in the MTA permanent collection. It is located on the downtown platform at 116th Street on the #1 line. My work has been exhibited internationally and is in private and public collections. I have been teaching Drawing at Parsons and The New School of Public Engagement for many years. My courses include "Drawing at the Met" and "Drawing in New York City". I am currently an Associate Part-time Professor at both Parsons and NYIT. In 2014 I have been teaching in the Fine Arts Department of Brooklyn College.
