About the Artist:

​

Having grown up in an environment that fostered learning and handcraft in all forms, I have always loved creating. I remember a dear family friend gifting me with my first set of pliers and beading materials when I was about 8 years old. 

 

I’ve rediscovered a love for jewelry-making in recent years after learning bead weaving, meeting and working with local artists, and watching countless YouTube videos. I am excited to be contributing to the community of artists in WNC.

 

I always work with high quality materials and love to support local vendors whenever possible. My pieces are made with glass seed beads, real gemstones, copper, brass, gold-plated, sterling silver, rose gold-filled, and gold-filled metals. 

 

Below is a collection of pieces I have made. I am always willing to work with you to create something unique or modify an existing piece. I find I am most inspired when creating custom pieces for individuals. Please reach out with any questions and/or custom order inquiries.
