A part-time crocheter of 14 years, and owner of Yaya’s Yarnanigans, crochet accessories and wearables. I am currently studying American Sign Language/Deaf Studies at California State University - Northridge, as crochet entrepreneurship, communication and language are the leading passions in my life. I have also been a barista for the better part of 5 years, so coffee becomes the glue that holds my sanity together between it all!

Education & Training: Cal State Northridge
