About The Artist

Graduated California State University Long Beach 2009 - BFA 3D Sculpture-Metals

I started metalsmithing when I was 14 at Idyllwild Arts. I have always had a passion for jewelry which lead me to major in Metal. This series is the beginning of what I call a collection of ideas over the years. I am highly inspired by Native American jewelry since living in Arizona and my background from Idyllwild. I love working with recycled, natural materials and incorporating Native American Earth inspired designs and colors. I primarily work in silver, brass and copper.  I focus on natural forms and am inspired by my surroundings.
