She cherishes ancient methodologies and understands the gift of interpretation for divination arts.

Organic Gardner

Her experience as a veteran organic gardener was a natural evolution of having been raised on a family farm. She was taught to milk her first cow when she was around four years old but promptly shot herself in the face with milk, knocking her off the stool. The family farm included raising cows, pigs/hogs, chickens, a Welsh pony and the monster-sized family garden. She was educated from the time she could walk about growing her own food, methods for storing it and how to have a sustainable lifestyle. She loves to grow and use herbs in cooking, aromatherapy and tictures.

Christmas Decorator/Designer

Her love for the Christmas holiday earned her the role of decorator for the family home and Christmas tree each year and eventually the storefront window displays at her first job when she was 15. When she earned her Interior Design degree, she built upon her earlier experiences to design many different Christmas trees as well as decorating whole houses.
