About the Artist

I graduated from Edinboro University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree (focus in Metalsmithing-Jewelry) in 2019. During my time there, I discovered my love for being in a studio. I found myself especially drawn to hammer-forming techniques and fascinated by the intimate relationship I was able to have with the materials.

I stayed in Edinboro for a Post-Baccalaureate opportunity to continue my work and engage as a graduate student for a year. Afterward, I decided to start a career as a jeweler. I currently live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where I continue to learn and create in my personal studio, exhibit my work nationally, and explore opportunities.
