I transferred a corner of my basement into a funtional sewing and design space. Even this space was repurposed from a wood cellar/garden storage area into my studio.

I've always been artistic and it's truly something that I can't live without. I like repurposing because it allows you to continue using cool stuff and the challenge of creating a new use for something is fun!

I'm from a quiet little town along the Allegheny River where I was born and raised. It's the kind of place where everyone knows everyone. And you can take a beautiful hike in the Allegheny National forest mere steps from home.
