I have been creating fine jewelry professionally for over 30 years, I operating my own Design Studio in Northern California. Before that I did special order work for other fine retail Jewelers and independent designers I have also sold my work to fine crafts galleries around the country. I began as when I was 13 years old and have never stopped. I was fortunate to be able to do an apprenticeship with Joe Apodaca, Joe's work is on permanent exhibit at the Smithsonian. As well as many fine craft galleries and private collections. I also completed jewelry/metals program at Oregon College of Art and Craft
I design and create 90% of the jewelry which I sell. I also do many special commissions in gold and platinum with diamonds or gemstones. Working with each client to design and create new exciting designs. I have many design styles to draw from antique to modern.
My focus is quality, design and function. I make pieces that you can wear everyday, pieces that are designed for people with active lifestyles. I like to think in terms of how many generations a piece will last, making it a family heirloom.
