I have never been more passionate about anything in my life! I want to learn and master every aspect of this trade! Since day one learning this craft has felt like coming home to myself. It is as if my hands and my mind have always known this ancient art form. My designs are inspired by and awakened by the gemstones and minerals that I collect. They are my muses and I would be completely lost and uninspired without them! Jewelry is just the transportation method for the gemstone and I intend to become a master of creating wearable art! Jewelry that allows you to carry around your favorite rock!
