My goal is to bring you great new designs, and to make beading easy and fun. I have tutorials and patterns appropriate for both beginning beaders who are looking to dip their toes in for the first time and test the waters, and expert beaders who are on the look out for the next amazing design.

I became a full-time beadweaving jewelry designer and teacher in 2004, and have had the pleasure of teaching at national bead shows like Bead&Button and Bead Fest ever since, as well as traveling to bead stores and bead societies across the world. My home is in Austin, Texas, with my mother (June), as well as my two dogs (Winston & Poppy) and two cats (Josie & Piper) who only occasionally eat the beads.

I am also the author of Jill Wiseman's Beautiful Beaded Ropes, a book released by Lark Publishing in 2012, and was proud to be selected as one of Beadwork Magazine's Designers of the Year for 2013.
