Now an artist and designer based in Chicago, I started my career creating branded mass market housewares, and then moved into jewelry design, working on everything from playful and inexpensive costume jewelry to the most exquisite and coveted gems in the world. From there, I learned the craft of metal-smithing, primarily forming silver and forging steel. I now build conceptual art works, continue to take design projects, and occasionally teach jewelry and metals classes.
