I've always enjoyed making things. Since always.
I suppose my story begins with my late grandmother, Martha Sue. She was the biggest influence on the development of my creativity. With my grandmother being such a creative force herself, it is no wonder, that with her guidance, I was able to constantly discover new avenues of self-expression and learn how truly special 'handmade' can be.
From making greeting cards for family, to arranging fresh flowers, to simply cooking a meal - I found that creating something, no matter how small, makes my heart happy.
After a period of transitioning from medium to medium, I started actively honing my craft of working with leather a few years ago. It is with leather that I am lucky enough to be able to create mementos for others to celebrate their life's journeys.
