I was born and raised in Los Angeles, got a BA in anthropology from Cal-State University, L.A. I then traveled the world for a number of years before settling in northern California where I was involved in organic farming and continued with an arts education at the San Francisco Art Institute. I have been active as an exhibiting artist and a cultural arts writer for a regional weekly.
Writing has become my way to stay conscious and informed as well as fight back against the apathy and collapse of culture.
