A Little About Me
Always interested in birds, travel and making things I started sewing after university when I needed a backpack. I made one and it worked! After some traveling I decided to try my hand at weaving and I still have several floor looms in the studio for fiber exploration. Needing to cover a window with a broken seal led me to learn stained glass. Crocheting, knitting, woodworking, I was a jack of many trades and a master of none. But I’ve always loved jewelry so it was a natural progression from stamping and painting dominos years ago to hammering and riveting metals. And with metals I found my joy. Using Argentium and sterling silvers, titanium, copper and brass and stones, I love bringing whimsy (and birds!) to my workbench when creating pendants, rings, earrings and brooches. My passion for nature, especially birds, fuels my work and brings me such delight. Now I aspire to be a master silversmith, an aspiration that will last a lifetime.
