She has taught sculpture at Lebanon Valley College and also served as assistant program director and post graduate fellow for the master’s degree in fine arts in studio art program at the Maryland College Institute of Art in Baltimore.

Her work has won multiple awards, including first Prize in Other Media in 2008 at the 80th Annual International Juried Exhibition, Art Association of Harrisburg, and second Prize in Sculpture in 2006 at the 39th Annual Art of the State, State Museum of Pennsylvania.
