For the past fifteen years, I've been absolutely hooked on the art of stringing – not just beads, but ideas and inspiration into wearable treasures. I love showing people how to take all sorts of stringing materials – silk and leather to the dependable strength of nylon and polyester – and turn them into truly unique jewelry, whether your vibe is modern and sleek or beautifully boho.

I get really excited about teaching some cool and unique techniques like the intricate twists of macrame, the delicate curves of curling beadwork, the security of traditional bead knotting, and some fun, distinctive knots like the slip knot and the wonderfully named moose knot. My passion is to help you discover the magic of creating jewelry that's truly your own.

It's been such a joy connecting with fellow jewelry lovers all over the world. I'm so grateful for the amazing community that's grown around my classes and creations. Speaking of classes, I teach a lot of them, and there's nothing I love more than seeing someone's face light up when they create something beautiful with their own hands.

I genuinely enjoy hearing from you, tackling your questions, and even embracing a good creative challenge.
