Since childhood, I have loved handicrafts and been attracted to the possibilities of beadwork. I saw how tiny pieces of beads were transformed into beautiful jewelry. In 2006, I created my own brand, “Beads & Craft Atelier Natio.” I have won awards for my work, and two of my handmade pieces were exhibited in the Louvre. I teach workshops for bead artists and different ways of handicraft. In essence, beadwork has become my life work.
