She has received several Canada Council and Conseil des arts et des lettres grants, and her work is held in several public collections, including the Museé du Quebec, the Canada Council Art Bank, and the City of Ottawa. She has earned both a BFA (University of Ottawa) and an MFA (Concordia University), and she lives and works in Montreal.
