Introduction	Born in Coronado, CA and raised in the U.S. - I have now lived in Canada for 38 years, and am a Canadian citizen. When I retired from "WORK work", I discovered beads - making them from glass rods in a 2000 degree flame (called lampworking) -- and then using them to make jewelry. Having branched out from there, I now also work with Polymer Clay, Artisitic Wire (for crochetting with beads etc.), jeweler's resin, and more.
