Growing up, Deb played one instrument or another since she was about 4 years old when her dad brought home an organ. She started guitar at 8, piano at 12, mountain dulcimer at 28, and violin at 34. After her marriage to John, the love of her life, she started building folk instruments, including: a Peruvian 26 string harp, hammered and mountain dulcimers, tin whistles, and bowed psalteries. She studied music composition for 3 semesters at UW Eau Claire, and taught guitar, piano, violin, mountain dulcimer and recorder for 11 years. She has continued teaching mountain dulcimer and guitar throughout her travels.

"I discovered Mountain Dulcimer plans in a craft book when I was a child, and built my first instrument from a kit that my husband bought me on our honeymoon. I taught myself to play but set the dulcimer aside as we raised our family. In 2007 we went to the Old Tyme Music and Dulcimer Festival in Palestine, Texas. That's where I really learned to play, and that's where everything really began. I thank Margaret and Jerry Wright, Sue Carpenter and Mark Gilston for all their help and wonderful music!"
