Biography

We all have unwanted parts to us. We all are broken somewhere wether we admit it or not, but all of those pieces mosaicked together has made each of us who we are today and everyone of us is a beautiful creation.



I love working with broken glass and recyclable products for so many reasons. One reason is I know my pieces can never be reproduced. The original will always be the original and one of a kind. Glass also has so many wonderful properties that work beautifully in art. I have personally observed this in Italy, France, London, Singapore, and other travels. Not only can you have colored glass to bring out particular colors, but glass will always reflect back and add colors that surround your environment making any art piece work perfectly in any environment. Glass also holds the illuminating property that paint just can’t reach. Glass gives art the sparkle, bling, or wow factor which I’m inspired by living in TX. I also incorporate something old, in every piece and up-cycle unwanted products as my small way in helping our environment-- something I bring back from the state of WA and my Grandparents from upper MI. It gives my pieces a history and a story behind each one and a rebirth to the item. My love for history and home roots I get from growing up in the Midwest in IL. I love to take the broken and unwanted parts of our life and create rich beautiful pieces. I almost feel each piece I make is like a human story.
