For more than two decades I have enjoyed Navajo-style weaving while running a small business in architectural kiln-formed glass. These two crafts were worlds apart until four years ago when I combined my love of fiber and glass to become a maker of baskets and vessels. Being able to link these two media to bridge traditional techniques with contemporary materials has given me a sense of cultural and historical balance.
