Mary Browder
Like many of you I wear many hats. I'm a wife, mom of 4, grandmother of 3, friend, sister, volunteer and co-worker to name a few. I am one of the founding team members of pixels2Pages. I have been scrapbooking for almost 50 years and digital scrapbooking for 15 years. I have a passion for teaching others and learning new things myself. I have a job I love with teammates that bring out the best in me and push me to go above and beyond. I can also call them friends. I have owned two companies on my own and co-owned another. In my free time I travel, read, paint, draw, make cards, knit (kind of), build puzzles and enjoy French Handsewing. My faith guides my life.
