In her career as a professional puppet designer and builder she has built marionettes, Muppet type puppets, rod puppets, large body/costume style, modified Banraku, shadow and pretty much every other kind of puppet.
She has attended the O’Neill Theatre conference for Puppetry a number of years and is now on staff there. She has been a member of a puppet improv group, done theatre performances for adults and is a regular participant of regional puppet slams. You can view her puppets on Puppetlandia.com.
