Her work has been shown throughout the US including recent solo shows at Robert Henry Contemporary, Brooklyn, NY; Carol Shen Gallery, Brooklyn, NY; The Cooler Gallery, VT; and Gregory Lind Gallery, San Francisco, CA. She has been awarded fellowships from: The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts; Yaddo; The MacDowell Colony; Virginia Center for the Creative Arts; and The Millay Colony. She has received painting grants from the New York Foundation for the Arts and The Pollock-Krasner Foundation.
