I love creating unique handmade art through polymer clay, resin, and beaded jewelry. My work allows me to blend creativity with detail.

I enjoy sculpting with polymer clay and air-dry clay, especially creating detailed figures, expressive eyes, and unique handmade characters. I love bringing my ideas to life through sculpting people and adding personality to each piece with carefully crafted features and artistic detail. My work reflects my passion for creating one-of-a-kind art that is both imaginative and full of character.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from many places in everyday life, from the creativity I’m surrounded by while working at Michaels to the beauty of the outdoors—the sky, stars, and moon. I’m especially inspired by my daughter, who brings so much meaning, imagination, and heart to everything I create. These everyday moments and personal connections influence my art and help shape each piece with creativity and purpose.
What would you do with $25,000?I would set aside more than half of it for my child’s future, making sure it is saved to support their growth and opportunities later in life. With the remaining amount, I would use about $8,000 to $10,000 to open a small craft store in my hometown, creating a space where I could share my creativity, sell handmade pieces, and offer art supplies to others in my community.
