I take my work seriously, but I don't necessarily take myself seriously.

It took me a while to find myself.

I create with my heart, so life and work inevitably intersect all too often.

I don't think men get enough flowers. A deeper pink or red peonies are my favorite. But I'll take anything, really.

I just want to create, and socializing is part of the experience. It might sound crazy, but I don't see myself in the jewelry business. It's an experience.

I work with gold that holds history, diamonds that see the future, and rubies that long for love.
