Has been a member of the Tennessee Valley Rock & Mineral Club since it was founded and grew up with the hobby. Through an interest in medieval history she learned to carve soapstone into molds to cast pewter, and incorporates this technique into the class, along with bas-relief and 3-D carvings. She has been teaching at William Holland since 1999.
