sassafras ave workshop sustainable self-care.jpeg

I started Sassafras Ave. because creating is in my nature and nature is my inspiration.

Although I’m retired from my life as a professional musician and as a Registered Nurse, my creativity, my love for making beautiful things and my deep passion for helping humans be better humans and making the world a better place continue to move me.

So, I created Sassafras Ave. to help you connect with relaxation and comfort, while adding a little sass and sustainability to your personal care routines.
