Like all little girls I fell in love with jewelry and other baubles at a very young and tender age.
By age twelve I was living in Hawaii and selling handmade bead leis of my own design to Liberty House. I rapidly became frustrated with the quality and variety of the commercial components that were available.
Now I have created a line of innovative and unique jewelry with components that are entirely handmade specifically for the piece.

I still find the influences of the islands - the rich colors, the textures and the diverse cultures and images continually surface in my work. I often laugh that I have found a way to go home without buying the airfare!
