How did I get into balloon twisting?

When I was but a wee tyke, my father, a pediatric PA, experimented by twisting balloons for my childhood birthday parties. Most of his attempts at twisting, weren’t exactly blue ribbon balloon sculptures. They did however spark an interest and appreciation of balloons for me. Twenty years later, I made friends with an area twister and they began teaching me the craft.
