Ways Duke Colleagues Beat Stress with Hobbies
During the pandemic, Helen Cuccaro has developed an eye for repurposing materials and turning them into something new. After she and her husband resodded their backyard last summer, Cuccaro deconstructed the leftover grass pallets and used the wood to build privacy panels for her garden.

Over the past two years, reusing materials such as leftover tiles to make an epoxy table have helped Cuccaro relieve stress.
