I have been making jewellery in one form or another since 2002 when I first started making chainmail. Slowly I’ve transitioned into the more traditional types of jewellery while still striving to develop a personal style—which I’m still working on, and probably always will be. My speciality, and favorite type of work, are piercework (fretwork) pieces which use multiple layers to create a sense of depth, especially when representing landscapes from my vacations. I am mostly self-taught (through books, videos, internet communities and extensive practice) however I have also attended several classes and workshops with experienced jewellers whenever the opportunity presented itself.
