Brinna A
Designer
I’m originally from Colorado and studied Anthropology at Western Washington University, but jewelry has become my true creative outlet. I taught myself metalsmithing in 2020 during the pandemic, and what began as a hobby soon became a full-time career running my own silversmith business. I’ve also worked in law, startups, and hospitality, but nothing compares to helping clients realize their dream pieces.
At Green Lake Jewelry Works, I love letting the stone take center stage and experimenting with bold, geometric designs and unusual cuts like kite and marquise. I draw inspiration from the natural beauty of gemstones themselves, especially Australian boulder opals, which are vibrant and endlessly unique. When I’m not in the studio, I love hiking, reading, trying new restaurants, catching up with friends, and, of course, hanging out with my two cats, Disco and Navi, who keep life lively at home.
