I grew up on a farm in Northeast Ohio. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary/Special Education from Kent State University and a Masters degree in Educational Technology from Ashland University.

After teaching for 30 years, I retired from teaching technology at the middle school level and started quilting for others. Shortly after my retirement, I became a National HandiQuilter Educator, which has been a life changing event. I absolutely LOVE traveling around the country, meeting quilters and teaching them how to use their longarm machines!

After becoming an educator, I found that I love creating digital quilting designs and started a portfolio of designs.

  I am blessed to have a husband who supports my quilting addiction! I don't know what I would do without him! We recently bought part of my parents' farm so we will see where that will lead us! More on that as it develops!

We have an adult son and a granddog named Molly.
