Sustainability is one of my core values as a craftsperson, both in terms of creating a practice that is thoughtful regarding my body, energy and time, and in terms of environmental impact. I am proudly a slow crafter! I try and source my materials second-hand as much as possible, and this necessitates longer build times. I often work with vintage, second-hand and damaged fabrics. My projects involve a very long "collection time" as I am able to happen upon the correct materials in re-use and thrift stores, and they necessitate some creative use of techniques to transform materials into exactly what I need. 

Through long form video, panels, and hands-on workshops, I am a passionate and dedicated educator. For conventions I offer a number of 50 minute panels, all of which are listed under the "Panels" tab. I also offer a number of hands-on workshops and intensives, aimed at giving students a deep comprehension of a topic while getting to try it in the safety of a classroom. All of my panels are accompanied by PDF guides and all of my workshops have both video and print guides.
