Gold & Platinumsmith
Sometimes a single class can change your life—and that’s exactly what happened to me. While taking an art credit at community college, I enrolled in an introductory metalsmithing course that captured my heart from the very start. That class sparked a passion that led me to pursue formal education in metalsmithing, and I eventually became a graduate jeweler from the Gemological Institute of America.
My career began at a small jewelry brand, where I crafted elegant earrings and necklaces by hand. Over time, I also gained experience working in mass-produced bridal jewelry, learning the ins and outs of both small-scale and large-volume production. All of these experiences brought me to Green Lake Jewelry Works, where I’m thrilled to channel my artistic passion and explore new creative possibilities every day.
