I have been an avid scrapbooker for nearly 12 years and have taught for more than 10 years in Canada and the United States as well as in Europe. I've been married to my best friend, Drew for more than 17 years and have 2 wild, but devilishly handsome boys, Logan and Carter who are more often than not, the source of my inspiration. I reside in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada where the long, cold winters provide plenty of scrapbooking time for me.
My teaching abilities have taken me on numerous travel adventures in recent history. I have taught scrapbooking and paper crafting classes coast to coast in both Canada and the United States as well as in Norway and the Netherlands. I have had the good fortune to teach aboard three different cruises in 2009 and looks forward to seeing where I will get to explore next in this wonderful journey called life. I feel blessed to combine my love of travel with my passion for teaching. Being able to share my scrapbooking addiction with paper crafters everywhere is a match made in heaven!

I will also add that I have the distinct honour and privilege of being a Design Team Member for My Mind's Eye, Graphic 45 and a Golden Ambassador for Tattered Angels. I have had numerous projects and articles published in various magazines and has also has her own product line with Prima Marketing, Inc.
I am also thrilled to be able to say that I am an Endorsed Educator for a few of my favourite scrapbooking manufacturers such as Prima, My Mind's Eye, Bazzill, Tattered Angels, Riff Raff Designs, Graphic 45, Sakura, Stix 2 and Beacon Adhesives. Products by these companies are used in abundance in my classes and they have given their "seal of approval" on my classes. I love to create projects that are very detail oriented and incorporate texture and dimension wherever possible. You will not find a "flat" project anywhere in my portfolio! The best part of it all is that I show my students that they too CAN create a work of art that they will be proud of. When the steps are broken down and simplified, any task can be accomplished by any level of scrapbooker.
