originally from Los Angeles, i moved to Missoula after high-school to find what makes me happiest in life. after years of classical art training throughout my childhood, i felt truly exhausted by making art meant for others to digest, until i moved to a vibrant town full of craftsmen and humans that encourage expression through unconventional creation. living in Missoula inspired me to begin my jewelry making journey, which has sparked incredible interactions with strangers and has boosted my self image through feeling more represented in what I choose to wear. i hope my dezigns can fill you with just as much pride and whimsy.
