 I currently live outside of Boulder, Colorado and I grew up in
Estes Park, Colorado. Creating jewelry has been an awakening,
a passion, and has become part of my identity. My interest in
fashion and Art has led me to create visually appealing pieces
that make a statement when worn.

I have many sources of inspiration for my Art, both internal and
external.  A large part of my desire and love of Jewelry has come
from my Grandmother (Gram).  She showed me the power of
Jewelry and how her necklaces always made her feel beautiful,
they too became part of her identity.

I want women to feel empowered, alluring, bold, unique and
smart when they wear a piece of my Jewelry and nothing gives
me more satisfaction then when I have accomplished this. I
hope that when wearing a piece of my Jewelry you are
empowered with the same feelings of individualism, self, and
beauty that I have when creating each one of a kind piece.

Thank you Zak, Cinder and Java Bean…
