I work primarily with sterling silver, natural turquoise, and 14K gold. I use several different silver smithing and jeweler techniques such as tufa casting, traditional stamping, chisel and file stamping, overlay, inlay with stones, and general fabrication. I love giving form and dimension to once flat pieces of sheet silver or ingots. I love adding texture to my pieces to provide contrast. I love making heavy pieces that you can feel when you wear them. Ultimately my goal is to make beautiful, technical, and clean pieces that stand out.
