Philosophy/Approach:
     "My sensitivity to the need of the community grew out of my personal experiences and my natural compasssion for others. I meld my personality, aesthetic sensibility, and artistic skills into expressively powerful sculptures that gracefully reflect and communicate spirituality. My means and my cognitions of community values have me the successful choice of both church leaders and architects on numerous wonderfully executed and popularly received commissions."
