My journey into jewelry began while backpacking through Latin America. What started as a hobby quickly transformed into a profound passion as I immersed myself in the artistry and techniques of local jewelry makers. Driven by a deep curiosity to explore diverse cultures and uncover unique gemstones, I embarked on a decade-long quest across four continents, learning from jewelry masters who generously shared their knowledge and traditions.
Each encounter deepened my understanding of the craft, inspiring me to weave these global influences into my own creations. Today, I proudly operate my studio in Williamsburg, where I meticulously handcraft each piece with a dedication to preserving the cultural stories and artistic sensibilities that have shaped my journey. My designs are a reflection of the technical skills honed during my travels and the rich tapestry of experiences that continue to inspire my work.
