For the past four years, I have participated extensively in the studies offered by Diablo Valley College Art Department. I recently began studying at Berkeley Extension in San Francisco, California.

Referenced below is a sampling of the recognition my work has received thus far:

At Diablo Valley College, I have on permanent exhibit, a 4 ft. x 8 ft. acrylic painting titled "Below the Surface."

I recently received first place and a cash award for my artistic representation of the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake. The piece was on exhibit at Diablo Valley College Humanities Wing.

My work was been featured in a gallery exhibit in Pleasanton, California, in January of 2006.

I have completed two professional commissioned works.
