Wearable art begins at the workbench.
Metalwork lets me turn imagination into something you can hold. I fell in love with the craft because it allows me to adorn myself and others with pieces that carry both creativity and intention. Working with metals—especially sterling silver—gives me a way to be physical with my art, shaping each curve and detail by hand.
I cherish the rhythm of the work: sawing, soldering, refining, and watching simple materials transform into something precious. Every piece is a small celebration of craftsmanship, creativity, and the joy of making.
MY METALSMITH JOURNEY
I began metalsmithing with a small company here in Bozeman, where my days were spent in the steady rhythm of production and finishing. It was there, learning to solder, that I felt the spark—an unexpected love for the craft taking shape in the glow of the torch.
Later, studying jewelry and metals at Montana State, I grew that spark into skill, refining my techniques and deepening my connection to the materials. Along the way, I fell especially in love with sterling silver and the way it pairs so effortlessly with colorful stones, creating pieces that feel both vibrant and grounded.
As I continue my journey, I look forward to furthering my metals skills—learning new techniques, exploring new possibilities, and letting curiosity guide my hands.
