Jewelry has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My grandfather first introduced me to the bench when I was just 13, teaching me the fundamentals in our family’s shop. By the time I finished high school, I was carving waxes, casting metals, and setting gemstones into original designs. That early foundation sparked a lifelong passion.
I went on to study studio art in college, focusing on metalsmithing, and later expanded my skill set to include 3D modeling and printing. Over the past 30 years, I’ve worked on everything from clean, modern pieces to highly detailed antique reproductions. No matter the style, I take pride in creating jewelry that’s not only beautiful but built to last.
When I’m not at the bench, I’m often out on the trails - as a competitive ultramarathoner, I spend most weekends running more miles than most people drive. It’s my way of staying grounded, focused, and constantly challenged - just like the work I love to do at Green Lake.
