About the Artist

I am inspired by industrial and social culture materials mixed wth a passion for mathematics but driven by my love affair with color. My material choiceshave unique graphic and color qualities in which exploring and forming them are the heart of my studio practice. All of my material choices have inherentbeauty and strength beyond their functioning identity. Pushing boundaries of color and pattern with the existing worn, street patinas of the broken,recycled skateboards that I use paired with handmade sterling silver designs, creates playful but powerful jewelry. These dual factors are the reasons whythe jewelry resonates memory, time, and place to anyone who encounters it. Harnessing every day with a unique sense of self is what my work strives toaide. My focus is to create fine hand crafted jewelry that empowers individuality and brings a refreshing point of view to contemporary jewelry. This is myidea of what everyday jewelry should be.

Based in Knightdale, NC
