I am a jewelry wire artist, designer and teacher; my designs are all about bringing out the beauty in the stone. My pieces have an unusual blend of traditional and contemporary designs. Some delicate, some big and sassy, I don't want to look like everyone else! My pieces are one of kind pieces of art. I work with silver, gold, copper and brass wire and semi-precious stones. I have always been involved in the arts in one form or another; drawing, painting and photography are a few of my favorites. I was an Art major (graphic design and photography) in vocational school and college. The design principles I learned there have come in handy in many areas of jewelry making. I have spent the last 20 years in Sales and Marketing and hope to someday leave the corporate world and make jewelry my full time business. I finally figured out what I want to do when I grow up! Working with wire has been a fascinating and rewarding journey; I have finally found my passion!
