Hailing from Hudson, NC, this talented self-taught glass artist creates stunning works of art using recycled wine and beer bottles, as well as genuine seaglass sourced from Puerto Rico and England. By day, they work in the software industry, but in the evenings, they channel their creativity into making beautiful, handcrafted pieces of art.

Inspired by living near the Atlantic Ocean in Melbourne Beach, FL, they developed a passion for collecting seaglass and turned that passion into a craft. After learning how to solder, they started creating bowls, Christmas trees, and earrings, eventually selling their creations on Etsy. As demand grew, they began using recycled bottles to meet orders and continue their eco-friendly mission.

Their Hudson, NC studio now hosts weekend workshops, teaching others how to create their own unique glass artwork. From suncatchers and framed art to the best-selling Christmas trees, each piece turns recycled glass into something truly beautiful.
