I am a multi-discipline artist based in Decatur, Georgia, best known for designing and making contemporary jewelry. Teaching is a vital component of my artistic practice. I enjoy interacting with creative minds and feel an imperative to continue the lineage of metalsmithing skills I'm fortunate to have learned. I offer an online design program for jewelry makers, featuring a weekly newsletter that includes short, easy-to-digest lessons and stories about notable jewelry makers, exhibits, jewelry history, and the cultural significance of jewelry wearing.

I hold an undergraduate degree in silversmithing and jewelry design and a graduate degree in sculpture, both from Georgia State University. I make jewelry that features interesting gems and exhibit my work as often as possible.

I look forward to connecting with other jewelry-centrics as we work to understand better the value we bring to jewelry-wearing humanity and share our creative product.
