Art by My Mother Group Show: Whitney Cultural Development Center, San Francisco, Summer 2003. I was part of a group show of seven Bay Area Artists/Working Mothers.

Phantom Galleries: Winter 2003. I was one of many artists who have been working to turn vacant storefront windows in downtown San Jose into mini-galleries. Read the article by the Mercury's Jack Fischer.

Sharkbyte Art Public Art Exhibit & Auction: In Summer, 2001. I participated in the "Sharkbyte Art" exhibit, where artists painted 6-foot fiberglass sharks that were then displayed on the streets of San Jose. After the exhibition, the sharks were auctioned off to benefit charity. My shark was auctioned to Hoge, Fenton, Jones & Appel law firm (proceeds going to benefit breast cancer) where it now hangs in above their main lobby on Market Street in downtown San Jose.
