I started making jewelry as a kid, just loving bright colors and getting to do things with my hands. I was an awkward adolescent who wore ill-fitting jeans and overalls with exotic beaded necklaces and bracelets, generally over doing it in the accessories department. In 8th grade my friend wanted to prove a point and counted the pieces of jewelry I was wearing. The number was in the upper 20s. It didn't stop me.

I still love beads and bangles. I love combining eclectic finds from around the world, creating conversations between colors, cultures, time periods. My hope is that the adventures and stories that are part of these pieces' histories will bring beauty and pleasure into the lives of those who journey with them next.

Journey on. Live the adventure!
