My jewelry designs are handmade, consciously crafted jewelry creations that integrate the human experience,
stories, and often support a cause. “Story” is the primary focus of my artwork. Life’s collective events inspire
me deeply. I feel it is my divine gift to be able to tell stories uniquely through my creations.

I started making jewelry in the 1970’s having learned metalsmithing in high school. I went on to earn a
Bachelor of Arts degree from Art Center College of Design. Always curious with a love of learning, I have
continued adding jewelry making skills to my repertoire independently as well as in workshops and classes.
