What can I say? I fell in love with stones!
In 1991, while working with some friends in a small Mom-and-Pop jewelry business in Santa Fe, NM, I discovered a deep passion for stones. For eight years, I immersed myself in the world of Sterling Silver jewelry, buying, selling, and eventually managing the business when the wife retired.
When the time came for them both to retire, I took a leap of faith and opened my own jewelry business in 1999. Since then, my love for stones has only grown stronger. I began collecting these captivating gems, designing unique pieces, and honing my skills in jewelry making. It has become a lifelong pursuit that continues to inspire me.

In addition to creating stunning jewelry, I am also passionate about empowering women through my craft. I believe that every woman deserves to feel confident, unique, and beautiful. By meticulously handcrafting each piece and carefully selecting extraordinary stones, I aim to create jewelry that not only enhances a woman's physical beauty but also celebrates her inner strength and individuality.
So much of success in the world stems from self-confidence, yet even the most self-assured woman may experience moments of self-doubt. That's why I am deeply passionate about harnessing the power of the earth through jewelry adorned with its precious stones. By wearing these captivating gems, we tap into the wellspring of our inner strength, power, and beauty. The radiance that emanates from within not only uplifts us but also inspires those around us.

Each of my creations is meticulously handcrafted, with a special focus on incorporating the most extraordinary hand-cut stones available. I source these
stones from various areas, either cutting them myself or obtaining them from
talented stone cutters and their representatives. I am drawn to stones that possess stunning pictures, colors, or textures, as each one tells a story that resonates wit
me.
To ensure I present the most exquisite jewelry, I prioritize both the quality of the stones and the craftsmanship in every piece I create.

When we embrace the transformative energy of these stones, we feel a profound sense of empowerment and worthiness. It becomes a reminder that we are deserving of the very best that life has to offer. I am driven by the transformative nature of this empowerment, which is why I pour my heart and soul into every piece I create.
By adorning yourself with my jewelry, you carry with you a talisman of self-assurance and radiance. It serves as a constant affirmation of your beauty and worth, empowering you to navigate the world with confidence and grace.
