Since January 2010, Monroe has been a glass painter at Willet Hauser Architectural Glass, Inc., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Willet Studios and the Hauser Art Glass Company merged into what became one of the largest and most respected studios in North America. The company was acquired in January 2014 by Associated Crafts of Gilbert, Arizona. Monroe brings to her liturgical work a history of glass painting technique and the ability to render someone else’s design in an effort to honor each congregation’s desires and demands for its windows.
