Born and raised in the beautiful state of Idaho, I have come to love the changing colors and textures of the land around me. I have always been fascinated by stained glass and its qualities; prisms, reflections, variations in color with the variations of light. The viscous qualities in its nature and formation, the intermingling of light, and the resounding vibrancy there in. In 1985 when my life and family found ourselves in California, I enrolled in a class at Ventura College. I fell deeper in love with glass and its possibilities. My draw to it was so intense that it wasn't more than Six months later that I was showing my creations at my first Art and Craft Festival. I spent the next 3 years on my hobby, learning and refining my skills and attending several Art and Craft shows a year. 1989 we moved back to our home in in Idaho where I opened my studio.
In 1990 I started a production company and have been producing the Payette Lakes Art & Craft Faire in McCall Idaho. The show has 100 artists and craftsmen and draws over 8000 in attendance. The show is always the 3rd weekend in August.
