Aloha!  

My 'ohana (family) and I moved to Oregon in 2001.  We have embraced the Pacific Northwest with open arms and we love it here.  Being surrounded by such beauty -- the tall douglas firs, the expansive, wide open grass fields and the beautiful rain which helps keep everything nice and green is the perfect scenery for rubber stamping!  Yes,you might have heard that it rains here but we have lots of coffee, wine, cider, and brew pubs to keep us fueled and entertained!  When you come to an event or class that I teach, you'll be treated like part of my 'ohana.  

I love to teach people the art of rubber stamping as it is so rewarding. I come from a family of artists but unfortunately, I was not blessed with that gene!  So I create art using rubber stamps and other embellishments.  I love to see the sparkle in a student's eye when they create something they can call their own.  

I have been a rubber stamper since the early 80's, so I have a wealth of experience and information to share with you. 

Being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is so rewarding. Not only do I get to be creative every day, I also get to be a creative coach, offering fresh project ideas and encouragement to my customers and friends.

For me, helping someone create that perfect project for a special occasion is the best feeling in the entire world. After all, creating cards, scrapbook pages, and gift items is about more than just stamps and ink—it’s about sharing a part of yourself with the people you love.
