Very hardworking and passionate person, who also loves art, enjoys working with the public; especially if it involves enhancing their experience when viewing art. There isn't a day that goes by where I do not view or talk about art. I'm a working artist. Hence the "self employed" lifestyle. I have curated over 80 art shows over the last 20 years and promoted them. Including my own work. I also wrote and produced an original play, and performed it 4 times in Portland Maine. Currently I'm in the North eastern part of the country as I am a amateur, competitive, alpine ski racer. My Passion for ski racing has led me into many years as the fund raising chair at my ski club. Where I am on the board of directors and am also responsible for all social gatherings.
