Back to Basics

Creating Custom Jewelry for people has had such great rewards for me. Not only does it feel great having the opportunity to create a beautiful piece of art. That piece of art is given or created to signify a happy moment in time.

It has been an honor working for Arthur’s Jewelers for 17+ years. Through them I grew into the industry and have had much support along the way. Designing bridal and fashion, it has been a true pleasure. It is not just me, our team is like family, and we all share the same passion to create beautiful heirlooms for our clients. I hope to continue there for many years to come.  

At Arthur's Jewelers I first learned how to guide the young at heart in picking out and buying an engagement ring for the person of their dreams.  As I learned the in and outs of the business I soon realized a desire to create.  It was so much more rewarding for me to somehow bring a little piece of our client’s personality into the jewelry they were going to cherish for a lifetime.   Arthur's soon presented me the opportunity to learn Jewelry design through a CAD program call Matrix.  Having a computer and machining background I took well to the process.  Seminars, classes, lectures, and a little help (lots of help) from the wonderful people at Gemvision, taught me the skills of CAD design.  Feeding my competitive nature by entering Jewelry competitions I honed my skills and pushed myself to be better and better.  Having an unquenchable thirst for the questions "why" and "how, I've studied jewelers of the past and present, consistently learning and pushing myself to create beautiful pieces of wearable art.
