| Are all items shown on the site made personally by you? |
Yes! I personally design and create all seen on the site. I am a self-representing artist and make lampwork glass beads in my studio. To build the finished jewelry pieces, I identify top quality metals and beads to complement my own glass beads, then design and create what you see here. |
What are your credentials? |
I have enjoyed doing something artistic through all phases of my life. I hold a MBA and bachelor of arts degree in Accounting. In 2005 I discovered lampworking while searching for unique beads to include in my finished jewelry designs and instantly fell in love. Initially self-taught, I have also studied under some of the top lampwork artists in the nation as listed on the About me page. I am a member of the International Society of Glass Beadmakers, Lampwork Etc, Wet Canvas and the Hoston Society of Glass Beadsmakers where I currently serve as treasurer. I am also registered as a Self-Representing Artist.
