I owned and operated Private Collection Rubber Stamp Company in Dallas and Bedford, designed rubber stamps and dies for manufacturers in Colorado and Nebraska, I have taught art classes all over the United States, Canada, UK, Spain and The Netherlands. I have been on various “How To” shows on PBS, Fox Morning Show and Carol Duvall. In 2004 I started Ten Seconds Studio which was a company that sold tools for embossing on metal. I also designed molds for metal and clay. Our tools were sold all over the world and we created weekly “How To” YouTube videos for our products and classes. In 2013 we were invited to participate on “Craft Wars” a show that is on The Discovery Network and won the competition.
In 2019 I retired from Ten Seconds Studio and decided to have fun creating art.  My hobbies include silversmithing, calligraphy, working with steel, welding, cement and mixed media art. My passion is calligraphy and lettering arts and combining that with mixed media and metal. I currently enjoy teaching classes at my Studio, Lettering & Design classes at the Fort Worth Woman’s Club and Sparks Studio in Arlington.
