"20 Under 40"
 
I was recently selected in the New Jersey Herald's "20 Under 40" competition.

Over the summer, our county paper, put out a call for nominations of business leaders who are under the age of 40, are the future of our region, and are making a difference in the quality of life in Sussex County. I was honored to be selected in this group of stupendous "movers and shakers" in the county. 

Thanks to the NJ Herald, their jury, and whomever anonymously nominated me for this exceptional honor.

You can read my interview in its entirety here which was published on Sunday, September 27.

FEATURED STUDENT:
Kathy Adler
 
Join me in congratulating student, Kathy Adler, in her completion of this painting with me. Kathy started lessons about a year ago and has been working on this on and off. Her goal was to loosen her brush strokes and brighten her colors, both of which she successfully achieved. This is quite a departure from her typical work. Wonderful job Kathy; I applaud your perseverance.
