Profile Information
- Location:

- About Me:
- I am particularly drawn to creating pattern and texture in my jewelry. Through pattern and texture, my designs take on movement, visual and tactile interest. Through the use of color and form, I communicate emotion and energy. Many of my pieces range from simplistic shapes and lines, evoking a sense of calm; to heavily textured with bold colors and lines, suggesting passion.
My obsession with circles, spheres, disks, and symmetry is expressed throughout many of my designs.
I am a constantly learning new techniques, as well as perfecting traditional methods of metalworking.
Additionally, I'm a full-time student, wife, and mother of two boys. I enjoy listening to music of all types, especially industrial, techno, and even a little classical. I'm a self-diagnosed coffee and cheese addict. :)
