Using the materials discarded by society, I am able to harness my creativity to produce usable items. From growing up in a family where if you finished the peanut butter, you had better scrape every last drop out of the jar, then wash it to be used as a drinking glass, I am always looking for the potential in every small bit of fabric, cardboard, thrown away chair, or scrap piece of wood. I find beauty in repetitive lines and simplicity. Working with my hands is always rewarding to my soul and I love sharing my passion with others.
