Hi! I'm a 40-something dreamer with a day job in healthcare, a loving husband, and two crazy cats. I'm a self-taught embroidery artist, and I also knit, crochet, quilt, sew, and I'm learning to weave.  I'm passionate about the world of textile arts and history and want to help share these topics and skills with others.

I received an MA in Museum Studies from Johns Hopkins University in 2014. My work is heavily influenced by the act of personal journaling, poetry, and discovery through stitch, as well as the power of nature as a healing presence in
our lives.
