Thank you for taking a moment to learn more about me. I greatly appreciate your support for handmade.

Creating jewelry is my outlet. I love to create and design with natural gemstones and metals. I am constantly wanting to put colors and ideas together. I love colors in my work and it seems that my work focus' is on the gemstone.

It is my own personal dream to someday create and design jewelry full time. I am working hard in achieving a debt free goal which includes my home and business in about 9 years or so. Once I actually become debt free, I would like to be a full time artisan jewelry designer and travel the world for unique beads!

I also want my jewelry to have an impact on more then just myself and hope it can represent a deep hope for a better future. Thus I have chosen to donate $1.00 of every piece I sale to www.bloodwatermissions.com. A missionary in Africa dedicated to helping the severely destitute women, men and children. Personally, I can't believe how unbalanced our world is. How well I eat every single day makes me wonder how others in places like Africa have simply very little in comparison. We need to share. I sincerely appreciate all who support my work.

Living in the Pacific Northwest in Bend, Oregon has been very inspiring to my work. Simple things such as the sunset, the rivers, the mountain, and our wonderful forest are so beautiful and inspiring to me. Because my materials are natural to the earth, I believe they show the best with outdoor lighting and their true beauty is revealed.

I have a beautiful family with two sweet children, a kind husband, and my stinky dog. I am truly grateful for my simple yet happy and blessed life.

Thanks for reading.
