Her practice centers on using glass as a medium for healing, connection, and empowerment, particularly in trauma-informed and community-based settings.
“Shannon mastered many techniques…demonstrating an eye for detail and an innovative approach to the medium… I have no doubt that Shannon will continue to make significant contributions to the glass world throughout her career.”
-Christian Shevchenko
Christian managed Shannon directly at his former studio - The Glass Eye
