About the presenter: Zoey Storck loves to learn as much as she loves to make. Based in Central NJ & Philly, she channels an endless curiosity into a massive, evolving portfolio that spans everything from traditional fiber arts and paper quilling to modern digital fabrication and resin. While her experience is vast, she ultimately funnels it into two primary loves: earring design and three-dimensional creature creation. Inspired by film, her car (his name is Filburt), and her eclectic group of friends, Zoey thrives when mastering a new medium and sharing her process through teaching.
