I thankfully came from a strong line of women that also had an appreciation and respect for handcrafted items.  I developed a love for art and it's unique beauty not only visually but deep with in my soul as a result of this fairly early on. As I grew I found an amazing power in the visual captivation that art had and its ability to open my heart and assist with a flow of inner energy astounded me.

I started making beaded jewelry in 2002 while experiencing a difficult time in my life. I enrolled in a basic beaded jewelry class to help relieve my stress and find balance in my life. What I found was more than I was looking for and thankfully it opened a creative door that I didn't know existed.
Through reading and some great artisan friends I have taught myself along the way and continue to learn and try new things.
