I create contemporary wire basketry and studio jewelry using an eclectic mix of metalsmithing, woven metal, and crocheted wire in my work. 

It is the textures – both visual and tactile – that draw me to metals and to weaving. The feel of metal has always drawn me in, whether wire or sheet, smooth or textured, hammered or woven. And the visual pull of woven metal just never ends for me. I have to get in closer - touch it, to understand it. Most of my work incorporates weaving, crocheting, foldforming, and/or hammering.

The relationship of different textures plays a significant role in my work – contrasting and complimentary textures add to the visual and tactile experience.
