I have always been an artist. Many genres have led me towards creating and developing work that is both individual and distinctive. Juried in Fiber and Stitchery, my work speaks of subjects and stories that need to be told. This love of fabric and fiber reflects itself in my metal clay work as well. I find that being able to connect with people through all of my work is both satisfying and rewarding. – 2013 Third Place National Winner NSDAR American Heritage Fiber Arts Contest- 2011 & 2012 Northeast Division Winner in NSDAR American Heritage Fiber Arts Contest
