I’m inspired by the city I live in. I bring unexpected
shapes I encounter in New York City life into my designs,
with the use of big, bold silhouettes and strong lines.
Whether it’s the metal rolled gates on a locked store,
the wires draped over a telephone pole, the grates of a sewer,
scaffolding of a building under construction, the interior
of the subway, I integrate the grit of this city into my work.
The geometry in urban spaces become part of my designs.
A juxtaposition of grit and glamour, my jewelry represents
my love and passion for New York City
and who I am as a person.
