A little about me.....

I am an artist at heart. My artistic talent stems from my mother with a drive for quality and detail from my father. I was born in the city but I am definitely a country girl. I moved to San Luis Obispo county, CA to go to college and still call the central coast my home. My love of horses and western art sparked an interest in engraving and thus led me to a path into jewelry. I started working for a jeweler in 1998 doing repairs. Eventually becoming a well rounded jeweler active in all parts of the business including repairs, creating custom pieces, and shop manager. In 2007 I became a mother myself and have taken the opportunity to pursue more of my artistic desires. I began sculpting bronze and developing my engraving skills. I still love to draw and take photos of anything that catches my eye. Many people would say I should focus on one area of expertise, but I say do what you love and I love them all.
