ABOUT

I'm a Chicago-based jewelry designer and silversmith. I enjoy creating organic, raw looking pieces that fuse different types of metals together in rings, pendants, earrings and bracelets. I want my work to seem natural and simple, not too sparkly, polished or fake looking. I draw inspiration from the elements and shapes found outdoors, I want the metal that I use to reflect the way it is found in the ground; unrefined, molten chunks of metal that naturally accompany the body and its contours.






FAVORITE THING ABOUT RAW

The wonderful talented people that surround me.
