Princeton, NJ

About Me:

I am a Princeton, NJ based jewelry artist, trained in classical jewelry making techniques, such as granulation, chainmaking, metalsmithing, and enameling.

I received my BFA in 1973 and continued my jewelry education at the “Jewellery Workshop & Gallery” in NYC under the instruction of Fredricka Kulicke and Joseph English. I taught jewelry making at my home studio until moving to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1979.

I attended classes at the California College of Arts and Crafts and at the Revere Academy of Goldsmithing. At the same time I was head bench jeweler in the repair and custom design department for a well known retail jewelry store in Castro Valley, California. (I was working under the name Nancy Hannigan). I also taught jewelry making at a crafts center in the area.

In 1983, I moved back to New York where I taught classes and created pieces.

In 2009 I relocated to Princeton, NJ where I now have my studio.
