My jewelry is created through exploration and play, often with no clear outcome in mind. Resulting themes are built around recurring elements, an interplay of simple geometrics, organic forms, and a minimalist aesthetic. Influenced by the diversity of modern architecture and the natural world; the work is a combination of engineering and aesthetics. Constructions are based on tension systems with connections made by the simplest means. Each piece is crafted by hand in my Boone, Iowa studio.
