She was a finalist in the Bullseye Emerge Show in 2004 and a finalist and winner in the Student Niche Awards for both Functional and Sculptural Glass. Sandy was also awarded Best of Ohio 2008, 2009, in 2009- winner of the Ohio Designer Craftsmen Labino Award for Glass. She is so excited to share her knowledge and her love of glass.

Lauryn studied sculpture at Northern Kentucky University where she completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts. She loves working in different materials and has found a love for glass while working here at Brazee. She welcomes the challenge of working on custom projects and running the waterjet.

Emma provides a fresh perspective at Brazee with her background in ceramics and passion for sustainability. While studying at NKU, Emma had a blast serving as the President of the Sculpture + Ceramics Society.

Living a sustainable life has always been important to Emma and she brings that determination to Brazee, keeping our studio practices and glass products as green as possible.
