I hold a BFA from Eastern Michigan University where I have a major in both Metalsmithing and painting and minor in Art History. I am a proud single mom of four adult children Benny, Cara, Max and Autumn. I explored and documented the world with them . I currently live in Beaufort , NC by the sea with my husband and overly adored Portuguese Water Dog, Gesso. I salvage and cut up the bodies of vintage cars and trucks in search of and in remembrance of the glory days of road trips and adventure, family drive-in nights and freedom only the open road could deliver. The colorful steel carriages that took us there are resting on all around us. I rescue the steel in its fun- filled original paint pallets and now weathered patinas to then construct a new wearable journey that you can carry forward into its next adventure. I use cold construction techniques combined with fine and sterling silver to create a modern joyful aesthetic that is ready to hit the road!
