Artist Statement: "Inspiration comes to me in many forms; it could be a beautiful sunset, the color of the cool turquoise water in the Caribbean Sea, or an image that has stuck with me for decades. My current collection for example was inspired by a dive at the Caymam Wall with my best friend almost 20 years ago...I wanted to remember the dive forever, as I embraced and internalized the peacful ocean slumber. I cherish those images then focus my creative energy through the jewelry I create. I recreat those perfect times when I am one with nature with the living portrait and movement within the necklaces I create."
