I was 10 when I founded Miki’s Millions, a homemade operation fusing my mother’s creativity with my father’s pragmatism and headquartered at the end of the family driveway. With paint, watercolor paper and trinkets, I crafted, marketed and sold earrings to neighborhood kids (ok, maybe my mother bought a few pairs to help boost the balance sheet). Miki’s millions planted a seed, one that would keep
me circling back to my love for creating and selling jewelry. I supplemented a mathematics degree from University of Colorado at Boulder and an MBA from the University of Denver with work at a high end, custom jewelry store. When attempts to buy this business were unsuccessful, I took a 6-year detour into Corporate America as a data analyst. With jewelry still close to my heart, I continued to attend classes and gem shows, collect and string beads, and hope that one day I could make a living doing what I truly loved. Today, Continuum Jewelry represents a return to the beginning, a belief that we all get to where we need to be and a hope in our endless possibilities.
