My jewelry centers on spiritually rooted topics. The ritual use of a talisman to help transform one's self can be attributed to ones self-betterment. For millennia humans have believed in the transformative power of talismans. Through the ritual use and wearing of personal talismans, one transforms their life. The four elements of fire, air, water, and earth are powerful vehicles of change that are both visible, and work on and internal level. I am symbolically transferring this power into jewelry and object, and in turn to the wearer and user. My primary materials are silver and gold mixed with various types of stones, often found out on my hikes and meanderings.
