Several years ago, I "retired" from the corporate rat race but since I'm a bit of a workaholic, I soon realized that I needed something to keep me busy... and something that would hopefully help pay for a few small luxuries like food and electricity and the occasional night at the movies. So, I struck out on my own as a self taught jewelry artisan - after a lifetime of dabbling in a myriad number of crafts from beading to art, cake decorating to needle crafts, sewing to flower arranging - you get the idea.

So, why jewelry? Because I believe that by changing your accessories, you can change the way others perceive you and more importantly, the way you perceive yourself.

Oh -- and also because I love all the pretties! I love the sparkle of crystals, the natural beauty and energy of gemstones, the feel and glow of metals, the magic that different beads create.

A creative spirit for as long as I can remember, I draw on all of life to fuel my imagination and inspire my designs. The quintessential student of life experience, I take pleasure in tying many of my one of a kind designs back to a particular event or memory, or using my love of fantasy to create something from the ethereal world of my imaginative reveries.

Of course, I take pleasure in creating more classically simple and elegant jewelry as well, since I know that many of you prefer small touches of color and shine... but if the day should ever come that your imagination is ready to take that step, I would love the opportunity to help you make whatever you envision a reality.

No, you won't find a single particular style of jewelry here, but every item you see is handmade by me, imbued with love and positive energy, and inspired by the Mystic Wynd that flows through all of life.
