Interview with the designer

Tell us about what you do and what you specialize in.
 
Most of my time is spent in my studio. I hand carve, cast and 
fabricate my jewelry line - primarily in sterling silver. My approach 
to my process is to create small wearable sculptures meant to 
punctuate a persons style and become a part of their everyday. 
I love making big rings that stand out on peoples hands and 
sometimes stretch the boundaries of what is wearable.
 
How did you get involved in designing jewelry?
 
My grandma always told me I should do something where I 
worked with my hands…turns out she was right! When I was 
younger I would turn found objects into wearable pieces – I've 
always felt that things became special if they could be worn and 
kept close to you. When I was in high school I was kicked out 
of my metalwork class for making rings instead of the assigned 
project. It wasn’t until much later (and kind of on a whim) that 
I signed up for an evening silversmith class…I was hooked right 
away and applied for a full time program at VCC. There is 
something really amazing to me about using these ancient 
techniques that have been passed down for thousands of years 
to create pieces that are current and kind of mark this decade.
 
What makes today special for you?
Today is really just an average day for me…but I guess that’s really what
makes it special. I feel incredibly fortunate that this is what I get to
spend my days doing, and it’s really something special when I think that
every day there are people out there wearing something that I created!
