My name is Melissa and I've been making jewelry since my days in college. Originally only made as a hobby, to satisfy my cravings for one of a kind pieces that expressed my sense of style and as gifts. Recently it has become more of a business, my strongest form of artistic expression has expanded. I find inspiration from many sources including books, magazines, ancient jewelry, present fashion and style, requests from friends, and more. I love using semiprecious stones, pearls, crystals and anything else I can get my hands on. I'm constantly learning and am always thrilled at the endless possibilities.

On a more personal note, I'm originally from Puerto Rico, I graduated with a BA in Anthropology. I've been vegetarian all my life, was home schooled for long periods of time, I love reading and traveling. I'm also always happy to make new friends, so do not hesitate to contact me!
