Education Background
What schools have you attended?
Beaverton High School, Southern Oregon State College '77 - `82
What degrees do you hold?
Bachelor of Science (Music Major, Art Minor)
Started SOSC as an art major concentrating on commercial art and illustration.
What additional training or education have you had that would apply to this position?
Nothing else formal, but grew up in a very artistic family, so exposure to different art
forms and methods was really great. Stepfather was a technical illustrator and then
became a very successful metal sculptor (Stan Bennett)
1. Related Experience
What prior work experience have you had that would help you if you were appointed to
this position?
Worked in metal sculpture (apprenticing under my stepfather) before attending college,
painted murals, designed logos. Being a painter provides constant opportunity to be
creative with color schemes and how they can be the most effective within their location
and context. It has reinforced keeping my eyes keen to aesthetics.
Do you feel it would be advantageous for you to have further training in this field, such
as attending conferences or seminars? Why?
Yes, I think taking advantages of further training in whatever form it might take is
ALWAYS beneficial, as long as the participant finds it interesting and relevant.
Ir,
2. Interests
Why are you applying for this position?
Interested inputting my talents to good use, and want to do something towards civic
responsibility. Also looking to gain some new perspectives through the process of
serving. I'd like to see more public art in Ashland and interested in having some input
towards that end. I'm semi-retired, so I am looking for new and interesting ways to spend
my time.
Are you available to attend special meetings, in addition to the regularly scheduled
meetings? Do you prefer day or evening meetings?
Yes, and I much prefer daytime meetings.
