I graduated from the Institute of American Indian Arts (IAIA) in Santa Fe, New Mexico where I studied in the Two-Dimensional Arts program. My study was in Photography while at the art school. During this time I studied under the guidance of Indigenous photographers including: Larry McNeil and Delilah Montoya. In my last semester I began painting with friends who were Painters.
When I graduated from IAIA I began painting. Its been over 20 years since my time at IAIA and now I work at promoting and selling my art in the American Southwest as a practicing Indigenous woman painter.
