I’m a jewelry designer who joined the Fusion Beads team in 2009, and I love it! Working with wire and fusing is what I enjoy most, but I have been known to do a little bead embroidery. I love the rich jewel tones of ruby, amethyst, fuchsia and teal. I am definitely a sterling silver girl, but I like to antique mine to a nice patina. A few of my favorite inspiration designs are Wisteria Garden, Midnight Sparkle, Knot Me, Cascade, and Night Sky. I live in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood with my little black cat Fred.
