Kathi has always had a love for glass which she credits to growing up with a family who loved glass. A few years prior to retiring and returning to her hometown of Warsaw, Kathi found a passion in working with fused glass. She enjoys the many different techniques which can be used with fusing glass and admits there is so much more to be learned.

Kathi named her studio La-de-da Art Glass and you can often hear her say "Don't mess with my la-de-da" meaning don't upset her happy place.
