She is highly sought out as a teacher and willingly travels throughout South Africa as she shares her knowledge and enthusiasm. “I have been given a wonderful gift in being able to see, design and create in a multitude of mediums. This gift, along with PMC gives me great personal satisfaction. To be able to share all this with others, well, that is just the cherry on top….”
