I have studied jewelry in Washington State as well as Italy before receiving a BFA in Jewelry/metalsmithing from the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California in 1994.
I have been making production and one of a kind pieces since then, and maintain a studio in Berkeley, California.
My work is designed using simple forms and volumes to create modern, wearable pieces. Recently, I have been focusing on pearls as design elements. Most work has been oxidized with liver of sulphur to enhance the contrast of the white pearls to the darker sterling silver.
