What is your mafia nickname?
Fingers. On my more maniacal days, The Golden Brain.

What is your craft?
Drawing based work with some sewing. Like Print Gocco prints and handdrawn dolls.

Why do you do your craft?
Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, I gotta make stuff.

What are your sources of inspiration?
patterns, stories, the ubiquitous beauty in simple things

Chicago Cultural Center & Harold Washington Public Library

What is your favorite beverage?
genmai cha (green tea with brown rice)

Where do you buy your favorite beverage?
Here at home in the Brandysphere, or at Metropolis Coffee in Edgewater.

How did you come up with your business name?

I started my company in 1996 designing rubber stamps. Knowing I was going to go in other directions, I wanted something a bit evasive and encompassing.

What is it's significance?
Sounds nice with the oo's and the common human experience losing one's baby teeth.

What is your weapon of choice?
bare hands

What would you be doing otherwise?
traveling

Do you have any advice for other crafters?
Like Polonius said, "To thine own self be true." Develop your own style.
