I am a retired high school art teacher, and I am very thankful to have had this wonderful career. I loved working with high school students, but I also love retirement. It has given me the time to create my own art.
​
I have always been inspired by the colors, shapes, textures, and forms found in nature. When I’m making my glass jewelry, I use this inspiration in designing earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and rings. I also use other materials when creating my designs.

I love to travel, and I’m always looking for new stones, gems, and various metals to add to my designs.
