The Enchanted World of Fused Glass with Artist / Instructor / Studio Owner Nancy Dillingham Marks

Welcome to the Wellbeing and Career World Podcast! Today’s guest is Nancy Dillingham Marks, a Fused Glass Artist who took a bold leap from a 35-year corporate career into the world of art. Starting with just a single class, Nancy discovered her talent for working with glass, despite initial doubts about her artistic abilities. Embracing the imperfect beauty of her creations, she saw a unique opportunity in the market and founded Glass Arts Collective—a local studio where she shares her passion for glass art and helps others bring their creative visions to life.

With a diverse background in human resources, accounting, operations, and more, Nancy has also traveled to all 50 states and continues to explore new cultures. Tune in to hear about Nancy’s inspiring “just do it” approach to life and how she’s transforming the world of art through her studio.
