Playing in Grandma's jewelry box as a kid has given
me a life long love of vintage items, and I taught myself
how to make and repair jewelry from the treasures I found
in there. Vintage elements still inspire me and find their
way into my work. I began making lampwork beads in 2003
to complement these elements, and have been blissfully
lost in the world of creating glass beads ever since.
I began teaching the art of torching beads in 2008.
