#1. Q: Can you share a motto, mantra, quote or verse that serves as a continual source of inspiration for you?
A: “I’m looking for something that is true, honest, and feels like me.” This mantra is evident in every piece I bring to life.
#2. Q: Why is having a positive impact through jewelry important to you?
A: Because I have a personal love and respect for:
- Our earth and all her gifts. Life, water, stones, air, plants, trees, animals…
- Beautiful diversities and wisdoms of people and cultures I have experienced through worldwide travel.
- Gratitude and finding fairness and ways to give back
- Acknowledging the gifts and listening to the unique needs of each person/place
- Hearing and seeking out the possibilities surrounding us as to how we can improve for the greater good
#3. Q: What’s your favorite gemstone and why? (If it’s too hard to pick one, what are your top 3?!)
A: Tourmaline, corundum, and gem silica chrysocolla. Decisions on things like this are incredibly difficult for me… but the first two because they have the most color variations, so even with these, I could at least still have all the colors. I love so so many others, which of course being a part of Columbia Gem House does not make this any easier! Because I have so many beautiful and meaningful gems close by on a daily basis. I could probably go on and on here, so I will try to keep it to that.
