“I am a product of the Albuquerque, New Mexico public school system.  After a tour in South Vietnam I returned home to work in the semiconductor industry as a professional welder.  I obtained seven federal welding certified certificates in ferrous and non-ferrous metals and in plastics.  I brought that experience into the art world.” 

 

“Fabricating art in metal became my passion.  I then moved to foundry work; creating sculpture in clay or wax, then casting them in aluminum, cast iron or bronze.” 

 

“The New Mexico Veterans Memorial in Albuquerque exhibits my life-sized bronze honoring the Vietnam Veteran.”
