Born in Santa Monica,
I grew up on
a 250 acre horse ranch in undeveloped
Western Malibu, California.
Our ranch was completely surrounded by the Santa Monica Mountain National Recreation Area, a 156,000 acre land preserve north
of Los Angeles California.
The mountains and Pacific Ocean were my earliest imprint.
I developed a connection to the land and wide open spaces of wilderness.
My childhood home is now entirely preserved as the Malibu Nature Preserve,
Nature Trust of the Santa Monica Mountains.
From this beginning, I inherited the desire to dedicate my art to the
purpose of preservation of open space.
