Artist Information
I
have had a love for creating with my hands since I can remember. Introduced to working in metal in a high school jewelry class, I pursued that passion earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts in sculpture from the Maryland Institute, College of Art in Baltimore, MD.
I aspire to establish authenticity in my life and my art and
each of my creations embodies this balance. Based on texture, form, and beauty, I combine elements of sculpture with the wearablilty and scale of jewelry. I watch trends in lifestyle adapting them into realistic and functional pieces of art that can be worn easily and comfortably while above all, remaining fun.

I hand select all materials used in my designs from the best sources in the jewelry industry ensuring pieces of quality, workmanship and beauty. Stimulated by the beauty and fragile environment of the spectacular Maine coast, I bring the essence of the natural world into my jewelry to symbolize the tension between man and nature, refinement and rawness, and the formal with the informal. Designing and creating exquisite jewelry that bonds
these relationships is important to me as an affirmation and celebration of
our own natural beauty and grace.
