Carol was born and raised in the Midwest, into a family that actively supported the local arts community. She studied drawing, printmaking, and photography at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and later received a BA from DePaul University. Following college, Carol worked as a financial analyst at an investment management firm in Chicago. In 1999, a move with her husband to California prompted Carol to leave the corporate world and revisit art through drawing and painting. She discovered Photoshop in 2012, which sparked a change in her approach to the making of art. The artist returned to her early interest in photography, but in a new untraditional way that incorporates her past experience, acquired skills, and desire to communicate visually with passion, expression, and an individual style. She is best known for creating constructed and staged fine art images. Carol currently resides in California, with her husband.
