My interest in crafts and artistic design began at the early age of four years old in my dad's workshop in the basement of our Michigan home grinding and polishing precious and semi-precious stones to create exquisite jewelry. I grew up in a family of amazing crafters with various creative enthusiasms that afforded me every opportunity to experiment with several different mediums including lapidary, crochet, macramé, calligraphy, doll making, and mosaics that all preceded my current journey in fused glass art.
