Maggie has been involved with lapidary and metalsmithing for years. She has taken classes in metalsmithing at Murray State University and William Holland. When she was introduced to chainmaille classes at William Holland taught by Chuck Bruce and John Fetvedt, she knew she had found her niche something she really liked doing. She took what she learned from them and put it to good use, along with her own twist on chains making each one different. Maggie is a member of the Tennessee Gem and Mineral Society and currently enrolled in GIA classes.
