My career focused first on architecture as a registered architect in Brooklyn, New York. Interest in hands-on making resulted in a namesake jewelry line in 2012, which continues today.

My architectural experience was mainly in design/ build and residential real estate development. With jewelry, the scale of work has become very small and very personal, much like residential architecture. Each pursuit informs the other, and they both are about how the things in our lives make us feel, and how much our relationship with those things can affect the quality of our lives.
