Bio: Born and raised on Bainbridge Island, I grew up surrounded by artists of all stripes. My parents always encouraged me to make things, for which I am eternally grateful. I found metalsmithing during my junior year of high school and never looked back. 33 years on, it still excites me. Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to study with many nationally-renown jewelers on Bainbridge and in Seattle. I also hold a BA in History and an MA in Communication. Both of which, while not directly related to metalsmithing, inform my work and my teaching. When not in my studio, I teach children’s jewelry and metalsmithing classes at Danaca Design and do custom metal ornament design.
