Overview
I attended classes at MECA and any other local classes to realize my interest in making jewelry was solid. I was fortunate to get an apprenticeship with a local jeweler where I learned all the skills I needed. After a year and a half I had two collections and was selling in NY and Baltimore wholesale shows.
I sold wholesale for 15 years. I now focus on retail shows and sell exclusively in a few Maine galleries.
My inspiration currently is the Maine coast and landscape. After traveling to other states for shows I have heard so many Maine love stories. I realize my muse was ME. I continue to explore my surroundings for the next inspiration.
I continue my education as regularly as I can. Maintaining a home studio in South Portland I continue my journey as a designer and metalsmith.
