My youngest daughter has inspired me daily. Having marvelous teachers throughout the years has added to my knowledge. My students range from 30 to 80+ years of age. The majority are retired seniors.

Treating my customers as I would want to be treated, promoting the industry as an art form and instilling creative pride in my students.
