I have created all my life. From stories and drawings as a child to the creation of advertising campaigns in my adult life, which allowed me to create a solid foundation for my daughter who has blossomed into a multi-talented formally trained artist in her own right. Participating in many art forms through the years, I have now fallen into what I was born to create, Jewelry. The form, function and beauty, all thrill me, providing the motivation to want to learn and do more everyday, to push myself, to grow.



Living in many lapidary havens such as Petoskey MI, famous for the Petoskey Stone, Austin TX, where I got my conservation attitude and true scene of stewardship, Okinawa Japan, with its countless coral and volcanic formations set in a lush green maze of foliage and Prescott AZ, in the geographic center of one of the best rock situations in the world. I believe I have gained plenty of inspiration from ââ,¬Å"pretty rocksââ,¬�.



Now that ââ,¬Å"rocksââ,¬� in the way of semi-precious stones and other gifts from the earth fill my daily life with endless color, inspiration reveals itself everywhere. Using bits of the earth to create beautiful pieces that people can wear and enjoy for years to come is the best part of what I do as a jewelry designer. As a business owner my promise to you is that I will conduct my business with superior ethics. Furthermore, always try my best to tread lightly on the earth and help as many humans as possible along my journey.
