I started sewing, embroidering, and crocheting when I was about 10 years old. Started quilting when I moved to Grant County in 2001 and knitting shortly thereafter. I am in love with all arts and crafts and have taken several classes here at the Arts Center including painting, pottery, and felt applique. I love sharing what I have learned with others and am excited about being part of the Fiber Arts department.

I have always had a passion for fashion, theater and the arts. In high school I got highly involved in the theater program and found myself constantly designing and altering clothes. My involvement in the arts led to a modeling career. I was blessed with the opportunity to travel abroad which expanded my knowledge of the fashion industry. I finally landed in LA where I opened up my first store called SandBox Rebel where I not only sold my brand but taught an array of classes as well. I'm excited to be in John Day and teaching again.

Interested in teaching or volunteering for the Fiber Arts Department?
