Tauraco Designs
In addition to the creative process of science, we also emphasize the importance of other types of creativity. We value the balance that different types of activities bring to our lives, and encourage our members to pursue hobbies. Dr. Shultz recently discovered her love of embroidery and jewelry creation, and started Tauraco Designs as an outlet for this type of expression. You can see a few of her pieces here, but check out her instagram account to see the full repertoire. She also takes commissions and has her current stock available on Etsy.
