Born in the Black Hills

Born in the Black Hills of South Dakota, I relate easily to the character of the mountains. My love of the outdoors puts me in touch with the colors, shapes and textures of nature, and I draw inspiration from diverse cultural influences and the landscape around my Black Hills studio. While many of my design ideas may begin in nature, sparkling gems adopt an understated elegance that transforms them from wear-everyday pleasures to special occasion dazzlers.

Finding pure beauty in nature's organic farms, I personally select every gemstone in my collections. My source of inspiration is nature and its infinite creations, limitless colors and surprising textures.
