I made my first bead in 2011 and this changed my life forever. Initially I have a degree in economics, but after I became acquainted with the world of lampwork, glass became my life.
I have many hobbies, but lampwork is my passion and my ‘number one’. If I do not melt glass at a torch, I melt it in my imagination. I can be inspired by everything and everywhere, no matter if I visit art museums, take walks in woods, or cook at home. And since 2015 I am a full time lamworker.
What began as a hobby is now my profession.
Nowadays I live and work in Uruguay, being the only one lampworker in a country. Currently I do not give classes, but there are several tutorial available, and my book, mi pride, a comprehensive guide devoted to my technique of implementing copper wire into lampwork beads.
