"Very beautiful, definitely not ordinary, beadwork"!
 

I have always had a passion to create.  My creative force has taken various forms.


At eighteen I wanted to design clothes and jewelry.  My artistic journey took a detour to teaching emotionally impaired children and inquisitive second graders. 
 

I have now taken the long journey back to my passion to create through jewelry.  


I was born in California, and grew up in Texas and Michigan.  I taught school and raised our son in Michigan .  My husband and I then moved to southwestern Utah where our passion for life is reflected by the natural beauty that surrounds us. 
 

This beauty inspires me to create.
