"The creative arts have been a passion for me for as long as I can remember and has often been my "ticket to sanity". Whether through basketry, weaving, gourd art or jewelry making, I could always find some peace and pleasure. In 2010, I discovered the world of metal clay and became hooked immediately. the possibilities of adding textures and gemstones to jewelry is very exciting and seems a natural way to create pieces that express one's individual personality and style.
