I'm passionate about making jewelry...About creating wearable art that's quirky and surprising, attractive and inspired, chunky, colorful, warped and exact. My passion was originally born out of a desire to make really interesting, fresh pieces for all ears -- pierced and unpierced. And it just grew from there...I use wood beads, glass beads, semi-precious stones, gemstone, silver, gold and base metal wire, chain and a lotta love when I create new pieces. I find designing and creating jewelry very exciting, challenging and personally rewarding.
