I am an Artist and Living Historian presenter, seeking to do both Full-time.

For Living History, I am available to visit schools, libraries, colleges et cetera. I primarily present on the ancient Roman Legionary soldier; and a Medieval Artist impression.

Not only do I bring reproduction artifacts and gear, I dress the part, too!

For Art, I'm currently studying and working with Medieval-Renaissance period drawing and printmaking techniques.

I hold a Bachelor's of Art in Fine Arts, cum laude from Westfield State College (class of 2000). My primary work is in Pencil drawing / works on paper, as well as Printmaking and Art History.
I've also taken classes at Worcester Art Museum in Printmaking, and until recently, I was a member of the Westboro Gallery in Westboro, MA (I'm currently taking a leave of absence to try and focus on actually making new art) I specialize in Raptors/Birds of Prey and Landscapes, seascapes.
