I love helping students build strong fabrication skills while encouraging their creativity and unique design voices to emerge. My own passion for fabricating artisan jewelry was nurtured by my late father-in-law, who was a skilled metalsmith and member of The Craft Guild himself, and with whom I took my first lost wax casting class at the Guild over 25 years ago. Today, I focus on metal fabrication, fusing traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. My pieces showcase my own creative vision by incorporating clean lines and beautiful gemstones in silver and gold, creating sophisticated works of art.
