Why we do what we do, how we invest in the community, and how people become more creative by participating

As a child, Allie Buchman always wanted to become a teacher. Teaching is about helping people to try something new, and accomplish something great. With her husband Nathan, Allie founded PotomacBeads and began a journey that has educated millions of people around the world in jewelry-making.
