Glass and Goldsmithing Inspired by Nature
I am a glass artist and goldsmith, blending vibrant color and thoughtful design inspired by the beauty of nature and the serenity of living on a lake. Each piece I create is designed to be more than just jewelry or art—it is a cherished masterpiece, crafted with intention and care.
Throughout my journey, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside some of the world’s premier goldsmiths and glass designers, refining my craft and drawing inspiration from their expertise. My work has found a home with a diverse range of patrons who value artistry and uniqueness.
Let’s collaborate to create a lasting memory—a piece of art that tells your story and stands the test of time.
After more than a year of writing and revision, The Quiet Return grew out of daily reflections shaped by illness, recovery, creativity, and the slow return to self.
This book is not about fixing everything.
It is about noticing what remains.
Written in quiet moments—many first shared here—these reflections explore healing, presence, and the steady work of becoming. They speak to interruption, endurance, and what it means to live attentively when life asks you to slow down.
My hope is that The Quiet Return offers readers something familiar, grounding, and quietly reassuring—a companion for moments of pause, recovery, or reflection.
Each glass chain is made slowly and intentionally. Every link began as part of a larger vessel, then was cut, refired, and cold-worked into its final form. This process requires multiple kiln firings and several hours of hands-on work, with each firing carrying its own risks and variables.
Select links include my handmade murrini created specifically for this body of work and permanently embedded through additional firings.
These pieces are designed to hang freely in space, where light and subtle air movement complete the work. No two are alike, and none can be exactly repeated.
This is functional glassmaking turned inward—about attention, restraint, and letting the material speak.

Maybe the grey of today isn’t just a mood or a weather pattern. Maybe it’s a metaphor. A reminder that life’s grey areas don’t need to stay stagnant. With a little effort—a stroke of amber pigment here, a touch of warmth there—we can transform the grey into something else entirely. Something brighter. Something truer.
The process of creating a pair of earrings for my muse, blending design, materials, and inspiration into a wearable work of art.
