When I was five, I went fishing with my dad and brother. As unfortunate as it may sound, my dad accidentally hooked me while casting his line. I was watching the fish in the lake when I suddenly felt a tug on my head. Oddly enough, I don’t recall feeling any pain or distress. What I do remember is catching a glimpse of myself in the rearview mirror admiringly on the way to the hospital, . I had a lovely feathered lure hanging down from the side of my head, and thought I looked like a mythical princess. Looking back, I do believe my love of adornment started then and there.
Born and raised in the heart of Brooklyn, New York, I cultivated my passion for exploring diverse cultures by earning a BA in Anthropology. Alongside my studies, I immersed myself in the art of jewelry making, honing my craft under the guidance of master jewelers over many years.
With more than 25 years of experience as a jeweler, my work continues to be inspired by my global travels and the intricate beauty of the natural world. Each piece I create reflects organic forms and embodies a blend of cultural influences, making them wearable sculptures.
I am profoundly grateful for the opportunity to transform my creative vision into tangible art and to share my passion with those who value the unique beauty of handcrafted pieces.
