I observe. I synthesize. I (re)create. Nature is my inspiration and every piece of jewelry I make celebrates it. Raw and minimally cut gemstones, hand-carved wax models, and carefully crafted settings transform shapes borrowed from nature (plants, pebbles, bee hives, etc) and make them intimately and infinitely wearable. I hand fabricate all of my work using traditional bench skills (cutting, forming, forging, soldering, etc). Hand carving wax models enables me to create unique shapes that are cast in precious metals and incorporated into to my jewelry designs, many of which are one of a kind. All of my pieces are intended to be worn every day and careful consideration of details goes into making pieces that are comfortable, effortless, and timeless by design. I work exclusively with recycled and reclaimed precious metals and strive to be as sustainable as possible. I use conflict-free diamonds and I hand pick all of my stones and gravitate to those with unique characteristics.
