I have studied with David Butler, trained with the goldsmiths at the Jewelry Arts Institute, and learned the art of wax model making with Fred de Vos. My inspirations are many. My designs are rich and bold. Textures are my signature, and my interpretations are derived primarily from nature and the many other shapes and textures I encounter in my daily life.
Since my childhood, I've always had a passion for jewelry. Several years ago, I made a significant change in my life when I closed my business and began to pursue my dream of creating and designing jewelry.
One of my favorite pastimes is tinkering with new textures. I love using different metals and combining them into one piece. Most of my designs are initially executed in wax.
