I have been creating spirited jewelry for more than 10 years. Experienced in the visual and performing arts, I've been interested in the natural interaction of color, texture, and perspective all my life. I regularly create commissioned pieces for customers in New York, Chicago, Miami, and Washington DC. My work has been featured at art shows in the Chicagoland area, and also at fashion shows and other events of leading civic and charity groups.
"My work reflects connection with the earth. The gemstones are center stage in my jewelry, showing off their form, texture, color, and interaction with each other. I see the metal, whether gold or silver, as playing the supporting role to the stones in the style of each piece. Every gem from the earth has meaning for us, and I hope to communicate that energy in my work. Major influences on my style have been Mark Spirito and Sara Creekmore"
