I create handmade beaded jewelry utilizing semi-precious gemstones, glass seed beads, leather, and other organic materials. I am a self-taught beading artist who uses traditional bead weaving, bead embroidery, and Japanese Kumihimo techniques in all my pieces. I take inspiration from traveling and nature around me – sunsets, desert vistas, fields of flowers, or the ocean.
