Had a great weekend at Brandywine. People keep asking me where I will be next so here is my schedule for the rest of the year. Come check out my art you can use. Or visit my website at HLSingsArtistry.etsy.com.

What would you do if your boss told you that you were too independent and made too many independent decisions?

I’ll tell you what I did.

About a month later, I walked into HR and said, “I resign, effective immediately.”

After 26 years in Big Pharma, I was done.

And now? I’m a ceramic artist. ❤️

The Bucks County Herald just published a feature about my rather unexpected journey from a Ph.D. in organic chemistry and pharmaceutical research and drug development to starting HLSingsArtistry and creating “art you can use.”

One of my favorite parts of the article:

“I saw very different corporate cultures, and some of them were honestly pretty disappointing. One company was extremely conservative, another often felt like a sexist boys’ club, and another had a culture where bullying behavior was far too common.”

So here’s the fun part:

Without looking at my LinkedIn profile, can you guess which pharma company was conservative, which was the sexist boys’ club, and which was the bunch of bullies? 😂

The article also talks about growing up in Encino, California — becoming an original Valley Girl in 1982, living down the road from the Jackson 5 — and somehow eventually falling in love with Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

And I especially love how it ends:

“Now that I have left the industry to start my own business, HLSingsArtistry, Bucks County feels like a great place to be creative.”

And about my ceramics:

“I create one of a kind, handmade pieces and my focus is on ‘art you can use,’” blending decorative beauty with functional everyday ceramic pieces like cookware and pottery.

Quite a change from Big Pharma. And I couldn’t be happier about it.

Come see what I’m making this weekend at the Brandywine Festival of the Arts in Wilmington!
