I have been a studio goldsmith since 1975. I have a BFA from UNT in Metalsmithing and have done graduate work at the University of Arizona. I studied Advanced Stone Setting and Diamond Grading at the Gemological Institute of America and specialize in restoration of antique jewelry. I have been commissioned by major companies to create one-of-a-kind pieces and have worked as a 'ghost designer' for top US designers. I teach and work in my studio at The Craft Guild, where I design and create my own line of jewelry.
