Trisha has been an avid scrapbooker for nearly 13 years and has taught for more than 10 years. She has been married to her best friend, Drew for nearly 18 years and has 2 wild, but devilishly handsome boys, Logan and Carter who are more often than not, the source of her inspiration. She resides in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada where the long, cold winters provide plenty of scrapbooking time for her.
Trisha's teaching abilities have taken her on numerous travel adventures in recent history. She has taught scrapbooking and paper crafting classes coast to coast in both Canada and the United States as well as in Norway and the Netherlands. She has had the good fortune to teach aboard three different cruises to date and looks forward to seeing where she will get to explore next in this wonderful journey called life. She feels blessed to combine her love of travel with her passion for teaching. Being able to share her scrapbooking addiction with paper crafters everywhere is a match made in heaven!

To Trisha's credit, she is a Design Team Member for My Mind's Eye, Graphic 45 and Tattered Angels. She is also and Endorsed Educator for some of the leading manufacturers in the industry including not only the Design Teams she is a part of but also Prima, Teresa Collins Designs, 7 Gypsies, Bazzill and Stix 2. Trisha has had numerous projects and articles published in various magazines and is currently a Contributing Writer for Canadian Scrapooker Magazine.

Trisha loves to create projects that are very detail oriented and incorporates texture and dimension wherever possible. You will not find a "flat" project anywhere in her portfolio! The best part of it all is that she shows her students that they too CAN create a work of art that they will be proud of. When the steps are broken down and simplified, any task can be accomplished by any level of scrapbooker.
