I believe space exploration is the great adventure of our time, and my enamel jewelry is inspired by modern and ancient images of the cosmos. I also make a line of copper jewelry with patina using many of the same design motifs and ideas. In each piece I make, I hope to create a miniature world, a small jewel or personal talisman that helps connect the wearer to the wider world.

I’m an artist, not a factory, so each earring or necklace is hand-crafted using all the skill I’ve developed in over 20 years of making jewelry. Because each piece is individually made, I can experiment with new ideas and designs every time I sit down at my bench. Color adds another dimension to my metalwork I love the luminous and pure tones of enamel and the unpredictable and subtle shades of patina. Life should be colorful!
