" I find myself intently working to finish a new design, eager to try it on and look at it against the skin, alive with movement even from a subtle breath.
Throughout history, precious metal artifacts have been melted and transformed into the adornments of their time. This recycling of materials fuels my daydreams.
I am still awe-struck that fire can join metal with a permanency that will out last me
and liquefies the seemingly insoluble.
My passion for jewelry is in both design and fabrication. My designs are inspired by simple truths and the complexity of nature. My construction methods are influenced by the many studio jewelers before me, who recognize the power of simple hand tools and honest materials."
