The beauty of jewelry lies in its ability to represent both personal symbolism and public image. I explore this duality in my work conceptually and literally, frequently including a secret in a piece only the wearer knows about, whether it is the ability to wear each piece in multiple configurations or an element hidden from viewers. My love for adorning the body leads me to create artfully designed jewelry inspired by technology, mythology, pop culture and childhood memories.
