Artist Statement
I strive to capture the beauty & grace of the natural world, using a sustainable palette of precious metals and luminous gemstones. My feminine, organic and tactile designs are hand crafted in Maine using ancient techniques with a modern sensibility. My work as a jewelry designer is about the power of self-expression, as well as being a positive influence on people, resulting in beautiful, inspired pieces.
