In 1975, she graduated from Bard College (Annandale-on-Hudson, New York), where she studied under Elizabeth Murray, with a BA degree.

Her solo exhibitions have been held at the Museum of the School of Fine Arts Boston, Nicolas Krupp Contemporary Art (Basel), Van Horn Gallery (Düsseldorf), Rachel Uffner Gallery (New York), greengrassi (London), Richard Telles Gallery, and many more.
