My art saved me when I had nothing. It taught me patience and keeps me grounded. I love creating something beautiful for others to enjoy.

I love beadwork. I love making earrings and medallions. I want my pieces to bring happiness and make you feel strong and beautiful when wearing my jewelry.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through my family; from my mom’s favorite flower, in my brother’s favorite color or a forgotten memory with my sister. I try to make something that they would love.
What would you do with $25,000?I would love to travel. There’s so much of the world I have not seen and would love to share my art. I want as many people as possible to wear my pieces. I have gained so much from creating, so much love, healing and joy and I want to give that in return.
