About the artisan
once upon a time
My journey began when I was a little girl, sitting on the floor making jewelry pieces out of plastic pony beads.
Growing up in Oregon, my passion for jewelry making grew right alongside my passion for nature. Always somewhere on a trail, lake, mountain, or beach, and muddy or not I was still decorated in my jewelry.
These things that fill my cup organically began to weave together. My designs have become a reflection of wild terrains that inspire me: they showcase the beauty in their natural materials, textures, and elements: earth, fire, water, wood, and metal.
Over the years I was constantly refining my craft and adorning friends and family with my designs.
With years full of constant creating, I became fully self-taught in professional jewelry making . . .
the birth of Elementz
By 2020, after I had been so frequently encouraged to launch my own line of jewelry publically, I felt it was time to surrender into the next step of my calling. We became an official corporation, and Elementz With Design was born.
While I initially launched the business as a creative outlet on the side, it quickly bloomed bigger. The feedback from customers who feel deep connections to my jewelry and through their experience of designing with me have been such humbling confirmations, blooming into a journey of co-creating with nature and the customer.
off the clock
Naturally, when I’m not crafting, you’ll find me outdoors — hiking, kayaking, camping, soaking up the pacific ocean, or travelling (another big piece of inspiration behind my designs). Alongside nature and travel, my 7-year-old son is my biggest joy; we share countless adventures, from biking and roller skating to crafting, making memories full of adventure.
I feel incredibly blessed to live in Central Oregon, a place that offers such stunning natural beauty; constantly filling my cup and fueling my creativity.
