About Me/Bio: A former elementary school teacher. When not at work as a librarian and trainer for the State Library of Ohio and Columbus Metropolitan Library, you'll find me tending to my six large garlic beds, garden and apple trees.
Stop by we'll split one of my homemade beers. Stay out of the way of the beehives in the back. They're gentle bees...but don't like to be interupted while at work. If you visit in the winter...you'll find me in my mini-studio, making glass beads and miniature mobiles.
