About

Growing up, I was always trying new hobbies and crafts, never settling into anything in particular. Yet I felt this pressure to specialize and “find my thing”. I thought maybe there’s something wrong with me if I can’t stick with any one craft.

My perspective shifted when I began studying metalsmithing and joined others in the classroom. Many of the other students would remark how they seem to have their hands in many forms of art and making… that they can’t seem to ‘focus’. I finally realized I wasn’t alone and perhaps I could embrace this side of me that wants to continuously explore and experiment. Maybe it is part of having a creative mind that we are always asking “what if I….[fill in the blank]”.

My work in the studio is about embracing this part of myself and seeing where my curiosities take me in jewelry design. No judgment, no boxes or limitations, just going with it. Ultimately it’s about being the most authentic version of myself and encouraging others to do the same – to play and explore and be themselves.

Each piece is handmade in Reading, PA in my home studio and is a one-of-a-kind creation from my brain asking “what if?”.
