I love making jewelry! I am a metal smith! I truly love everything having to do with naure. I love western, southwestern, and native things. My given animal is the blackbird or crow so I absolutely love them. I have a degree in anthropology so all the aspects of culture and roots inspire me. But my greatest inspiration is my daughter Maya and my tattoo artist husband Paul.

My favorite band is nine inch nails.
