Time spent abroad in Italy and France, learning directly from master artisans, shaped the point of view she brings to every project. Her travels to exotic destinations continue to be a source of inspiration, bringing fresh perspectives, historic references, and a deep appreciation for traditional craftsmanship into her work.
