A dozen years in the corporate world, an MBA and a brief stint in consulting were enough to drive me into independence. I started my business in 1985 and after three fabric related product lines, I had an idea for a collection of moiré fabric angels in 1991. For reasons I cant explain I decided they should have porcelain wings and heads although I knew nothing of porcelain or carving. Fortunately, I grew up in a creative family that assumed you could do anything until you proved otherwise, so I dove in. I find designing the animals and carving them extremely satisfying and would continue to do it even if I won the lottery.
