About the Host
I am a gallery and glass studio owner, Â a glass artist &Â a woman of science. IÂ attended the University of Georgia, where I received my BS in Geology and my MS in Economic Geology.
I was one of the first women rangers at Yellowstone National Park and I got into geology when Lois Jones, one of the first women to the South Pole was my Intro Geology instructor.
During my first career I obtained 35 years of diverse professional experience ranging from frontier exploration to rejuvenating fields in a mature province.
We started thinking about a glassblowing studio in 2013 as I planned for retirement. Â My husband, Michael Brown has an MFA in Sculpture and had been working with warm glass techniques since about 1999. Â We built a destination location for our studio in Tomball, Texas before we knew how to really blow glass and it has been the adventure of our lives!
