It’s been a minute y’all… I’ve been on a rollercoaster ride over here! At the end of February I found a lump in my breast, and with tests and a biopsy, I found out that I have stage 3 breast cancer.
This Friday I’m starting chemo, and decided to say goodbye to my hair (half of it was cut off anyway 😉 I’ve been cutting my own hair since I was 17, and each time it’s a time of transformation and self reflection, shedding old cells while knowing that new ones will grow back to take their place.
This journey I’m going on is very much a healing transformation, physically, mentally and spiritually. I’m surrounded by so much love and support, a really great medical team, my family, and my partner and love of my life, Jacqui.
I’m ready for the journey, and welcome your love, thoughts and prayers 🙏💗 I’m creating magic and miracles, bringing love, joy and laughter, and finding gratitude each day for blessings in my life.
If you’ve been putting off your own well being, please make that dr appt, do something for your self care, and love on your physical body that has gotten you through this past year…
Sending you all love right now💗💗 I’ll keep you posted as my healing journey continues, and let me know how you are loving on YOU! 🙏

Here’s the finished product... Concrete cuff links! There are so many ways to incorporate concrete into typical fine jewelry designs... I love creating that contrast between raw industrial materials and precious metals. For me it’s personal, I find myself to be someone who is both a grungy art kid and a polished professional- and they can exist at the same time😏 I’m still playing around with different ideas for the concrete collection, let me know if there’s anything you’d like to me to make. I’ve got a rainbow of color tints!🌈
