Julie grew up in Michigan and was lucky to have parents who supported her creativity. She attended Kendal School of Design in Grand Rapids Michigan and graduated with a degree in Illustration.
For 10 years Julie worked as a children's greeting card designer for Hallmark Cards In Kansas City.
This enabled her to become a freelance greeting card Illustrator and she moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico where she also created and sold contemporary woodworking folk art in galleries around the country.
Her next big change was moving to California to attend California College of the Arts where she studied Fine Metal Smithing and Ceramics. Once again her parents' helped make this possible as they believed in the opportunities education could provide. She was and is so grateful.
California is where she met the love of her life Mark Haymaker and they spent 12 loving and fulfilling years together before he died of rare Mucosal Melanoma at the age of 44.
After losing Mark, Julie found her footings in creating mixed media and this evolved into working with shrink plastic for jewelry.
She now lives in Tucson, Arizona. and dedicates her time to promoting the fun of using shrink plastic for making beads using the molds she has invented for this purpose.
Julie brings a lifetime of artistic skills and experiences to the work she creates.
