My philosophy is to design and craft jewelry that reflects the soul and beauty of the materials. Jewelry, that is beautiful, fashion forward and accentuates an individual’s personality. My inspiration is drawn from life
experiences. I was born in Austria and educated in Munich, Germany where I studied interior design.
Life has taken me across the European Continent, Middle East, Africa and New York to San Francisco. My designs have evolved to reflect the passage of time and place while embracing my European heritage where good design, quality materials and handcrafted jewelry are a hallmark.
