I have always been involved with the arts of all kinds. When I was young my Mom chose day care and summer camps that had my 2 loves: crafts and horses. I learned to ride when I was 3 years old (bought my own horses at 20) and began exploring more advanced fiber arts and enameling in the 4th & 5th grade. Since then I have pursued a degree in metals & jewelry design at the Cleveland Institute of Art. I began dyeing fabric, wool and yarn for a minor in fiber and used the elements of those processes and found ways to apply them to metal techniques creating a unique style that I then had to opportunity to teach to others.

I am currently focusing part of my creative energy on dyeing yarn and fiber for knitting as well as custom crafted colorways for skeins of yarn. In the future I will be adding custom dyed fabrics for quilting and sewing related crafts, custom colorways of wool batts and exotic fibers for spinning & felting. Be on the look-out!
