Some Of My Favorite Pieces, 2014-2018

I've been making jewelry professionally for five years. My aesthetic has changed a lot over the course of that time, & I've incorporated dead stock, found objects, vintage copper chains, vintage Czech glass beads, semi-precious stones like jasper, jade, chrysoprase, crystals, & more. I hope to find myself moving into metal forging & raw lapidary work and other manipulations in the future. I've never been so rewarded by making art, as I have creating jewelry. It truly fills me up.
