I am a native of Durham, North Carolina and I have been creating ethnic inspired jewelry for about 8 years. I love studying jewelry from different cultures to gain inspiration for my own designs. Currently, my designs are reminiscent of Egyptian and Indian culture. I am also fascinated by the healing properties of natural gemstones. I create my pieces primarily using natural gemstones, swarovski crystals, freshwater pearls, sterling silver, gold vermeil, and gold-filled findings. All of my pieces created with natural gemstones are label with their respective healing properties. I can’t wait to travel around the world to gain inspiration from other cultures.
