My studio is my laboratory…
“I thrive on experimentation in my creative process. Embracing new and challenging techniques is integral to my growth. When curating new collections, I strive to keep my options open, drawing inspiration from the intricate details of nature. Geometric petal patterns, the hues of an autumn landscape, and delicate insect wings are just a few things that fuel my creativity. My hope is that those who wear my pieces will be inspired to see nature through a fresh lens.“
A few updates to cyanotype pendant bails. Much happier with this slightly adjusted design.

More cyanotype ideas in the works. I nearly forgot how I made this heart design years ago. Time to dust it off.

I decided that the bare steel needed some color so I added ”morpho” powder coat.
Giant cicada garden wing hair clip incoming!!! I typically wear my favorite silver tone barrette that my bff from high school gave me, which has set the standard for the kind of clip that is secure, comfortable and goes with any outfit. I’ve been wanting to design a similar sized barrette to serve the same purpose for a while and now it’s here and it works!!! I made 2 but depending on how much people want one, I can certainly make more. It’s solid stainless steel with silver-plated copper accent blossoms. This will be up in my shop shortly.
Just got accepted to the @micaartmarket holiday edition at @marylandinstitutecollegeofart! Art Market is a three-floor holiday market that provides a seIection of MICA students, alumni, faculty, and staff the opportunity to sell their art, craft, and artisan-made pieces in a two-day public event on MICA’s campus. I’ll be exhibiting at the 16th edition of this incredible MICA staple event this holiday season. Come see me then!!
So many new creations were posted to the shop this month! New Art Deco origami cicadas, tons of cyanotype pendants and even barrettes!!! Now I have wee skulls just in time for Halloween.
I’m excited to announce my acceptance to two more shows! I’ll be at the @baltimorejewelrycenter holiday sale Dec 6-8, and the @hocoarts Holiday Art Market on December 5th! Visit my website “shows” tab for more info.
I create unique custom pieces
Many ask, ‘Do you take custom orders?’ The answer is a resounding ‘Yes!’ I adore crafting unique pieces for clients and their loved ones. Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, Mother’s and Father’s Days, or any special occasion—you name it.
I also craft pieces to honor loved ones, including pets. My process blends mementos, old photos, and found objects to create cherished treasures. It all begins with a photo or a story. Curious to know more? Inquire about starting the process.
