About Me

my biggest joy in life is designing and making jewelry. i am a silversmith. i have been making jewelry since i was about ten years old and working with metals specifically for 13 years. i design and fabricate all my pieces myself. i studied under a silversmith who learned from an old european smith using no power tools at all. my intention is to carry on a trade that has become a lost art over the years. check out my website to see some more of my work. in my free time i enjoy bartending, sailing and taking my dog to the beach.
