About Me
Let's MAKE something together!
My journey into the world of making began as a graphic designer, where I honed my skills in visual communication and design thinking. This foundation led me to the classroom, where I discovered the power of hands-on learning as an elementary school media specialist in Stamford, CT. During this time, I spearheaded the creation of a dynamic Makerspace that became a hub for student-driven projects and exploration. My passion for Makerspaces continued to grow in my role as a middle school media specialist, where I went from not having a Makerspace, to where I oversee an entire room in the building that is now dedicated Makerspace buzzing with student activity and invention. I've started this business because I believe we as a people should not just consume media, but create it as well.
I'm excited to share my experiences and inspire others to embrace the maker movement!
Did you know I also like to redefine old furniture I find on the street?
I always wanted a round dining table, so when I saw this beauty on the side of the road with a sign saying "FREE" taped to her. I knew I had to rescue her. I tried to fit her in my trunk, but she was too big. I quickly drove home, gathered my son and his friends and drove back to the table. Here, I forced the boys (I guess 16 year-old are not really boys) out and commanded them to carry home the table for me. Guess what? They actually did it and I am very grateful. Love you guys!

I also rescue driftwood from the Norwalk River
One day while paddle boarding I saw this beauty floating in the water and knew I had to have her. Again I raced home and pleaded with my son to come and help me. Being amazing as he his, he agreed and we rushed out with some rope, a paddle board, a paddle board paddle, a kayak, and a kayak paddle thinking we would be back in at most an hour. Unfortunately, the endeavor turned out to be a lot more difficult than we imagined. Want to hear the rest - you'll have to buy me a glass of wine. Teaser: the story ends with those same boys (now 18) that helped me rescue the table on the left.
