Sculpturally based, my work is created using both traditional goldsmithing techniques combined with modern technology including microscopic stone setting, wax carving and raising/forming. My work is often inspired by recreating the patterns and textures found in nature as I enjoy combining found objects with fine metals and stones. More recently my practice has included vitreous enamel which allows me the freedom of experimenting with colour more organically. I embrace custom and repair work and the technical challenges and problem solving that they bring.

I'm interested in the use of literary devices as a means of connecting my viewer though emotional experiences. Quite a lot of my work is influenced by onomatopoeias, anthropomorphism and metaphors. Much of my inspiration is found through beach combing and walks in nature along with the idea that everything is connected.

Finishing my BFA. For the last year I've been attending NSCAD's Jewellery program. It's been a dream of mine since graduating college to finish my degree to hopefully teach one day. I split my time between school and working at my retail studio in Windsor.
