I am a member of the Wealdsmere Culinary Guild.
Scribal Arts:
I have been crafting scrolls and charters since I first started in the SCA. I have crafted awards for many, many reigns.
My primary joy is Wordsmithing, writing historically accurate scroll texts tailored to the recipients.
I have submitted and had accepted dozens of texts. In 2017 I was truly honored when King Christian and Queen Helene chose my words to go on the Lion of An Tir for Duke Skapti Thorinsson. I started the An Tir Wordsmiths group on Facebook to network with others who love researching and writing award texts.
I created and admin the An Tir Wordsmiths Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1783867431637143
I have done original scroll commissions for recipients in An Tir, the Kingdom of the West and the Principality of Oertha, Barony of Selveirgard, Grimwithshire and the Barony of Wealdsmere.
I wrote the Scribal Handbook for Grimwithshire and another for the Barony of Selveirgard and the draft proposal for the Barony of Wealdsmere. I have taught scribal arts to anyone who shows an interest in learning. I enjoy striving to better my art and research new methods.
Arts & Sciences
I pursue multiple arts including pewtercasting (600 site tokens for May Crown 2022!), soapmaking, lampwork, woodcarving and sewing. My main interest is historical kites - ask me about kites! Or puppets - I have a large collection of antique puppets!
Marshal Warrants I have held:
Heavy Combat
Target Archery
Thrown Weapons
A&S Competitions:
I enjoy making largesse for my Barony and Kingdom and competing in A&S contests.

I generally am willing to lend a hand to anything that needs that hand. I take great joy in helping to make things work more smoothly. When the opportunity arose I worked to format and print flyers for Baron Fergus in support of the Inlands Crown Principality Initiative and campaigned tirelessly for it. I have drawn up too many event flyers and site copy to keep track of. I get ideas - for largesse, for contests or events, for all sorts of things to make our SCA dream more - more fun, more efficient, more inclusive and I share these ideas freely with anyone who will listen.
