Art and originality make every day rich, thought provoking, and often, beautiful! I believe that every living person contains a creative spark that is intended to bring beauty, joy, learning and healing to the person in which it resides. I like to do what I can to help ignite that spark.I am humbled by invitations to speak on this topic and others close to my heart. Personally, I have an affinity for all things broken,imperfect, and unusual. The first jewelry I designed is dated "1989" but that seems impossibly long ago. I also enjoy collage and graphic design.
