I have been working in the jewelry industry since Christmas 1989....when my mother gave me a box of wire, stones, tools and a dream. Within the year I had my first business, a source of income throughout my college years, and a desire to learn everything about jewelry.

Since then, I have taken every opportunity to hone my craft, mostly through nontraditional routes. I am primarily self taught through reading as well as trial and error. When the opportunity has presented itself, I have taken classes to advance my skills beyond what I could learn on my own. I now use several high tech options to fulfill my customers' desires, including laser welding technology and CAD model imaging.

I am blessed to do what I love and to do it well. I hope to share my passion with you.
