About the Artist
I always had a passion for art, math and science since I was a small boy. I pursued that interest at the University of Iowa where I earned degrees in both Art and Civil Engineering. While attending graduate school I discoverd that I could mix my two degrees and create art that incorporated my engineering training. This allowed me to begin exhibiting artwork across the United States and even the United Kingdom. I am currently residing in Boston, Massachusetts where I am working in my studio and assisting a few local artist in theirs.
