My bio for Craft magazine pt 2

I've been thinking of my bio, and here it is all worked out in paragraph form:

My interest in textiles began as a child, when my mum was a seamstress in downtown Toronto. In a nutshell, I like to make things with my hands. I also like to uncover why things are made the way they are. Based out of LA, I experiment with natural dyes and dye techniques, such as shibori and batik. Recently I’ve been experimenting with patterning large bolts of cloth using resist techniques. I also knit, crochet, make soap from scratch, and work with clay. Formally trained in human factors, I freelance in use experience research.

What do you think? I just need a picture to go with it!
