I enjoy creating a world, a story

"Jewellery has always fascinated me. The powerful connection people can make with it; and its capacity to hold and represent our secrets and our dreams. I enjoy creating a world, a story or a history through these objects. I hope that people who wear my work will be creating their own stories as well. The things we choose to put on our body say a lot about who we are. My pieces command attention alone, and when worn, shift the authority to who ever is wearing them." She says.
