Artist at work...

With a background in 3D modeling and digital art, my journey into jewelry design feels like coming full circle from a childhood dream. As a kid, I was fascinated by gemstones and even imagined becoming a gemologist—but life first led me toward digital sculpting for games and film. That path eventually brought me to Green Lake Jewelry Works, where I discovered that jewelry is the perfect way to unite all my passions: CAD, design, fashion, and, of course, rocks.

I was born in Hawaii and now happily call Seattle home. I draw inspiration from nature’s textures, shapes, and creatures, and I love bringing a bit of the unexpected into everything I create. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me knitting, trying out new bakeries, hanging out with my partner and our four cats, or relaxing with a video game. For me, the best part of the job is watching a design evolve from sketch to reality—especially when I’m surrounded by a team that makes the whole process feel like home.
