 "Several years ago, after over a decade in the Finance and Accounting Industry, I began reading the book 'You are a Badass' by Jen Sincero. I stayed up all night, dreaming and scheming and came to the conclusion that I could not imagine being an accountant for the rest of my life! I craved to use my creative side of my brain. Shortly after, I decided to pursue my passion and began the Executive Program at Heritage School of Interior Design in Portland, Oregon, where I went on to obtain my Masters of Interior Design with high honors and Staging Certification. This last January I was able to meet Jen Sincero at a book reading and was able to share my design brochure and tell her about how she influenced my decision to start following my dreams!"

Plaster has been a go-to construction material since, at least, the time of the ancient Egyptians. In more modern times, it featured prominently in residential construction in the United States before World War II. Its popularity across human history has been driven by how easy it is to manipulate — and its incredible durability. Plaster produced perfectly flat, uniform walls before the dimensions of lumber were standardized in 1924.
