In her California Bay Area Studio with Peridot Fantasy Collection

Jewelry art design is consuming passion for me. Even though I have a Masters in Bio-Technology, the tug of creative endeavor first led to success in high end boutiques and then in signature Art shows. Still, I feel I have just started the journey to create “Stand-Out” designs. Perhaps these words best describe my tryst with destiny,,

“I knew that my vocation was found. I had received the call, and having done so, I was sure my work would be assigned me. Of some things we feel quite certain. Inside there is a click, a kind of bell that strikes, when the hands of our destiny meet at the meridian hour.”,
Amelia E. Barr (1831-1919)
