Q: Why did you want to start this kind of business?

A: Originally I wanted a way to pay for new art supplies. After starting stained glass, however, it became about sharing my art with other people.

Q: How did you get your start?

A: I started doing small local craft shows selling resin crafts and other items. I took a stained glass intro class (shoutout to Rainbow Vision in Harrisburg) with my grandmother, and my art and business exploded from there.

Q: What does your business sell or provide?

A: I make alternative/spooky/witchy stained glass pieces. I like to focus on pieces that aren’t what you think of when you think stained glass.

Q: What is the biggest challenge you are facing right now?

A: Staying busy enough to stay a full-time artist, but not too busy that I can’t enjoy being self employed or that I get burned out.

Q: What is your favorite thing to do or place in Cumberland County?

A: Massey’s. They have the best ice cream.
