Having had strong artistic influences while growing up, it was only natural for me to pursue the arts in college. I attended Boston University where the three-dimensional object fascinated me. That intrigue led me to major in sculpture; I was actively carving stone, pushing clay, and welding steel. After graduating from B.U. cum laude, I continued creating sculptures in stone and clay. I acquired a proficiency in welding, so that when I moved to Maine in 1995, having limited space, my turn towards smaller wearable art was a natural progression.

Presently, I maintain a home studio where I work constantly and consistently. It allows me the perfect climate to design and fabricate. Form, texture, and color meld together as I bend and solder and enamel and patinate. I work with gold, silver, precious and semi-precious stones and have recently started enameling on my pieces. One-of-a-kind designs inspired by natural forms are the force behind my strong yet classic designs. I take exceptional delight in a winter sunset, a branch, a bug, a tiny flower, or the all-powerful sea; everything motivates me to create. I love color and texture and allow their interplay to join harmoniously in my work. I am thrilled that my sculptural training has evolved into jewelry design and fabrication and I continue to push my designs to new levels. I love what I am doing!
