After a long career as a film photographer I have returned to my first love of making things with my hands out of found objects. I am fortunate to teach creative Reuse workshops at Ruth's. Table, ScrapSF, The Exploratorium, San Francisco Center for the Book, Fabmo and other artistic venues. My motto is "Finding beauty and purpose in the discarded.”
