| How did it all begin? |
| I have always been creative and love making gifts for family and friends. I have a science background, working as a laboratory technician for the past 30+ years so it seemed natural for me to combine my professional and creative sides to become a soap and balm maker. |

| Meeting people (both customers and fellow marketeers). I love sharing my passion for natural hand made, hand sewn, hand grown products with like minded people. |

| Not much, even when we are experiencing a ‘slow market’ I find networking with fellow marketeers rewording. |
| Where do you see yourself in 5 years time? |
| Retired from my real job as a lab tech and doing a few markets a month to supplement my superannuation.. |
