I have been working as a jeweler since the mid 1990's, starting as an apprentice with a master jeweler. I started working with jewelry because of a fascination with metals and stones. My work tend to have strong architectural lines with a contemporary feel. I have two lines that I have been working on for a few years. The first is my reticulation line. I enjoy combining the rough texture of reticulated sterling silver with the high polish of sterling silver or 18k yellow gold. The other series that I am working on is the floating ring series. These rings feature a larger stone that is supported by a single prong, giving the ring a unique look and providing the stone with the most light possible. I also make corporate charms that are great in gift shops or as gifts to valuable clients. I also do commisioned pieces for individuals and charity groups.
