Born and raised in rural Canada by two do-it-your-selfers, I've always been making things. Some of my favorite childhood memories are sewing with my mom, learning how to use the tools in my dads workshop, or recieving my first table-top weaving loom for Christmas (I still have it).
My educational background is in biology, and before becoming a full-time mom, I worked on a 70 foot sailboat teaching environmental education and marine biology to schoolchildren.
At home with my own children, I love to enlighten them to the beautiful and interesting cycles taking place in nature. I love to make good quality toys that babies and children of all ages can enjoy.
But I can't limit myself to just making toys. My passion for trying new things and learning new skills keeps me moving on to new hobbies. I love to combine a new skill with old ones to create interesting peices.
