After a week-long hiatus spent packing boxes and navigating an abrupt move, I’m finally back in the studio. 🎙️

​Sometimes life forces a reset, and I’m using this new chapter to return to myself and my craft. I’m stepping into this space with a fresh mentality: sharing more of my process, staying consistent, and building real momentum. I'm excited to grow this business in a way that lasts.

​Here’s to new beginnings and the work ahead ✨

Still buzzing from the energy at the Gathering of the Guilds this past weekend! 🌱 There is nothing quite like connecting with fellow creators and seeing the incredible talent in our community firsthand.

​Huge thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth to chat or take a piece of my work home. It was the perfect way to start the spring season. ✨

Something about working in wax feels utterly enthralling. I’m grateful for the space and time to shape my own style, to let designs emerge at their own pace. Having a studio free from outside pressure feels like a true blessing — just me, the craft, and the quiet unfolding of creation.

a safe, creative nest away from the noise of the city and daily demands.

Here are some of the projects ive been working on and After four months of dedication, curiosity, and craft — I’m proud to say I’ve crossed the finish line of the Intro to Jewelry Manufacturing course at
This journey gave me more than just technical skills — it offered me the chance to slow down, refine my practice, and be surrounded by professionals who know how to meet every student exactly where they're at.

Coming in as a self-taught jeweler, I was able to fill in some long-missing gaps in my foundation — and now I leave with deeper confidence in my hands and lifelong friendships in the jewelry community.

This isn’t just a class — it’s a portal into mastery.

To anyone considering stepping into their next evolution as an artist: this is the sign.

Leaps and bounds of progress in the craft!! So excited to be on a learning expedition with . There's only so long one can teach themselves until they realize they have the skills, but spending time to hone in the craft can really do wonders on understanding your limitations and tackling boundaries and challenges that are conquered through teachers with knowledge and experience.

It's about time for an update.

After years of stepping back from my craft due to life, its time to step back in and share my journey.

Taking it slow and steady as I introduce new techniques and prepare for a new level of craft 👌 😎

It's been a long time since I posted! But at least I've spent my time well learning new krafts. I'm excited to ramp up my creative process and start sharing again.

A new leather journey awaits 🐄
