I have been in the jewelry business/selling crafts online since June 2009, and received positive reviews on Etsy and Tophatter . In April 2011 I decided to update my online presence by creating a professional website. I am a graduate of the New York Institute of Art & Design and the Penn Foster Career School, and was one of the featured vendors at local Farmers Markets in the DFW area. Some of my items can be found at Hank & Ellie (gift shop) in Pantego TX, and I also had some of my hand-beaded tapestries showcased at the Tokay Beaded Art museum in Roswell NM. I was a Shared Space Member of CREATE Arlington with 2 of my tapestries exhibited (and sold) at their gallery, and I am a member of The Wild West Bead Society in Arlington TX, as well as The Arlington Gem & Mineral Club.
