She was born and raised in Wisconsin, has been a student of art since childhood.  During her adolescence JC received formal art training from various instructors and local artists, as well as at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design.  In 1996, she sought something to say in her art by choosing to study philosophy at the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh.  After college, JC spent several years as a corporate trainer and while in that career, began to feel both great stress and the need to melt glass.  While investigating how to do that, she was led to lampwork bead making by a local stained glass store.  JC ordered the equipment, taught herself lampworking and has grown to love the endless possibilities in glass beads.  In 2005, JC became a full time glass artist and is looking forward to a lifetime of exploring glass.  JC is internationally recognized for her unique use of “the rainbow colors” in her lampwork beads.  Below are two of my designs illustrating how I have used these wonderful and brilliant beads.
