What an amazing year this has been…My work has been
worn by three soldiers who were shipped off to Kuwait…I’ve sent
jewelry to Australia, Japan, New Zealand, France, and Bismark
North Dakota! (who new?) I designed and created a pendant that
was presented to a heart transplant recipient who climbs
mountains…She received my piece at the top of the Matterhorn!
I’ve made jewelry to commemorate birth, friendship, love, loss,
hope, and much more….
I try to incorporate something positive into everything I
make…Each piece is made from sterling silver or 18k gold, with a
little copper here and there. All my work is hand built, one at
a time, not mass produced. Consequently, no two pieces are
exactly the same…I spend about half of my time making custom
jewelry for people who want to incorporate words that are
special to them into a piece of jewelry. I have met so many
wonderful people…
What I love most about being a jeweler is the feeling I get when
someone walks up to me at an art show wearing something that I
created…I never tire of seeing something I made out in the
world…
jewelry for the soul…cool….funky….positive.
