Thanks for looking at my site.  You can find my most recent work with David Yurman,  where I was fortunate enough to be a CAD Designer.  Before that, I was making jewelry for the ultra luxe and historic David Webb brand.  When it comes to jewelry, material and brand are just part of the equation.  A homemade macaroni necklace can have more value than the most extravagant emerald necklace.  For this reason, I am proud and fortunate to be a part of any jewelry story, from private clients to big brands.  All jewelry and art is wonderful in their own right.

 

That said, there are "Master Jewelers," far beyond the skills of beading with dry pasta, and now I believe there is a new vein of artisans, "Master CAD Craftsman." I hope to help bridge the gap between these talent pools with my background of jewelry studies and 3D modeling.  

Whether it was making pieces for my dollhouse
or examining vintage jewelry, tiny things have
always fascinated me. In my undergraduate
degree, I studied literature and Mandarin,
which prompted me to move to Shanghai for
two years (I loved it!), where I learned Mandarin.
There, I started a jewelry brand called
Belleisbelle, which sold in markets and trade
shows around Asia. I realized I wanted to be a
jewelry designer and sought out formal training
at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New
York, where I am currently based. When not
designing jewelry, find me at spin class,
scouting for sample sales, or hunting for
vintage jewelry at flea markets.
