About Me!

I live in Kansas City, Missouri with my husband, love to travel, golf, read, work out, and I’m passionate about designing jewelry!

I love the process of transforming raw materials into beautiful and distinctive wearable art, and I am forever evolving in this field. I enjoy learning and experimenting with different techniques to take my craft in new directions. Every day brings a stream of ideas, challenges and rewards, making this endeavor so much more that just making jewelry

This was not always my passion, so keep on reading to learn how I got here.

I was born a creative, forever finding joy and inspiration from craft, design, materials, built and natural environments. This innate spirit translated to a fascination for interiors and a bachelor’s degree in interior design from Kent State University.

I was fortunate to spend my career in the corporate world in roles related to that education and passion. My last decade in that setting was the most rewarding as I directed the color marketing efforts for America’s largest paint company. My role included researching and presenting color and design forecasts and trends, developing tools for professionals and consumers, designing and art directing interior spaces, and the most fun of all, developing and naming new paint colors! Yep, that’s a real job!

In the midst of those years I uncovered a hidden talent for designing and fabricating jewelry. This creative venture ebbed and flowed as I continued a career that was filled with inspirational journeys, feeding my passion for color and design and in turn influencing my jewelry aesthetic. Retiring after thirty successful years opened the door to starting this small business that brings me such joy.

My goal is for everyone to appreciate handmade, unique, jewelry that never goes out of style.

Enjoy!
