I am finally back at my bench and ready to create! After a much too long hiatus I am excited to be back doing what I truly love, designing and creating jewelry. My handcrafted jewelry features sterling silver, and solid copper. I love to add color to by incorporating precious and semi-precious stones, freshwater pearls, and Swarovski Crystals. Because I use natural stones and handcraft my metal and wire work, no two pieces of my handcrafted jewelry are identical. My goal is to design and create jewelry that is as unique as the person who wears my designs. All of my findings are also handcrafted by me :~) From earring wires to clasps to toggles and even hand sawed links and jump rings, they are 100% made by my hands using sterling silver and solid copper.

I started designing and creating jewelry 7 years ago. Beading was my first venture in this field of art. I self taught myself to bead, but wanted more. I then began to use wire and was amazed at how much it added to my work. Still wanting more, I started taking metalsmithing classes. I took classes for a year and a half and found that my work became an intricate part of who I am. I tend to design and create my jewelry in collections. Getting stuck on one collection and moving on to another is the biggest problem I have with making my jewelry this way. Even with older collections I will find myself going back to them, adding pieces to make them fresh and new again. I try not to make my pieces too trendy. I want the woman that wears my jewelry to be able to wear them for a lifetime. Timeless sophistication is my ultimate goal.
