I now call Alabama home after relocating from Las Vegas where I started my jewelry design career. I took my first lesson from Bead Haven for my birthday and started teaching my own designs a year later. I am a mother of six (five boys and one girl) and I am especially blessed because my daughter, now twelve, shares my passion for beads; her color palette keeps me thinking outside the box when I design. Beading is my favorite and true passion: The colors, shapes, textures, and patterns of beads are never ending and make me feel like a little girl in a candy store. My work has been featured in magazines and I sell my own patterns.
