Meet your host
Hey, I'm Peggy
I've got a thing for art and I've also got a thing for the creative community. Y'all make me feel some kinda way. Creativity helped me during a dark time in my life and since then, I've dedicated my life to ensuring that other people can get the resources they need to do the same.
I'm an artist, author, and educator; I've got a bunch of resume creds over here if you wanna check them out. For now, let's celebrate creativity and smashing creative ruts. You're in for a treat. I am here for YOU.
Got a question?
I've got answers.
