Southern by birth. Midwestern by residence. Optimistic finder of silver linings in dark clouds. Enchanted by color, pattern, and creativity. Motivated by discovery. Lover of beautiful things, and of helping others feel beautiful.  

 

I fell into jewelry making almost by accident. After one class years ago that introduced me to the most basic jewelry terms, I set off on a journey of discovery with beads. Over the years, my style has evolved and my techniques have expanded, but my work is consistently about color, pattern, and texture.

 

Sometimes it’s a single bead that inspires me.  Sometimes it’s the challenge of working within a specific color palette. Sometimes it’s a “what might happen” experiment with a new technique or revisiting an old one. Whatever the starting place, I revel in the journey, the meditative process of creation, and the joy of working through design challenges.

 

I believe that you don’t have to shout to be noticed, but you should always express yourself freely. I believe that you can be both bold and reserved. My greatest hope is that my jewelry, whether it’s one of my more modest pieces, or whether it’s one of my exuberant works, will make the woman wearing it feel like her best, most beautiful, most powerful self.

 

Confidence is the greatest accessory any woman can have. Life is too short not to let yourself shine!
