About

Senior year of college someone I met at work told me about a silversmiths club around the corner from the school, being a jack of all hobbies and someone who enjoys crafts I decided to attend their beading class. As i walked though the club I saw some other pieces people had made in the other classes and was struck by the concept of bending metal to our will. At the time I was set on graduating and working a corporate job, however as I learned more and more I realized i could never return to that world. Ive been learning how to make Jewelry every since, attending classes all over the country, and trying to find what my style is. I recently attended a course at GRS and fell in love with hand engraving, since then Ive been focusing on engraved signet rings. As my passion for jewelry grows, so does my curiosity and I'm very happy to discover it over time.

Artist Statement

In my early years, I found it challenging to discover my inner creativity, believing that only original ideas were special enough to share. The jewelry I make draws inspiration from the beauty of everyday life whether it’s an architect's design on a building, the changing seasons in nature, a quote from a friend, a song that caught my ear while strolling through a store, or a book recommended by my reading club. I’ve come to appreciate that my hands are a vessel for life to express itself. This newfound knowledge has enabled me to craft custom pieces for everyone, including rings, pendants, grillz, necklaces, and anklets! My custom, engraved jewelry stands as a testament to your life and all the moments that call for remembrance.
