I do not have formal training or a degree in art; but I always found myself drawn to art classes and different art forms. What started out as making simple cards for myself, led to collage art and working with different mediums. This opened the door for my first book, “Collage Lost and Found”. My second book “Bent, Bound, and Stitched” came out spring of 2008. I currently teach classes, sell my jewelry and other handmade objects at specialty boutiques. I have a line of rubberstamps available at Stampotique Originals located in Phoenix . My work has been featured in, “ Artist Trading Card Workshop: Create, Collect, Swap”, by Bernie Berlin. Somerset Studios, “Holiday and Celebrations, Volume One 2007”, “Paper Crafts, October 2007”, “ The Art of Collage Jewelry”, by Janette Schuster, “Stampers’ Sampler”, Aug/Sep 2008, and “Belle Jewelry”, Fall 2008 I have appeared on a variety of TV shows including 3 episodes of DIY Craft Lab.
