My passion for art bloomed early as I observed and joined my father while he was painting on canvasses and framing paintings. I was introduced to stained glass art, in High School, which I delved into and worked with for over two decades. Upon moving to Toronto in 1989, I met a life long friend who also worked in stained glass and then fused glass. She introduced me to glass fusing and ever since then, I have worked solely with fused glass, spanning the next three decades. 

Finding peace and happiness in glass creation and teaching others about glass, has no limit and can be pushed beyond imagination. Light, shape and colour are the hooks that make this medium so wonderful to work with.
