I was taught the traditional art of bead-weaving twenty years ago in California . Since then, I have been creating pieces of jewellery which act as bodily sculptures, adorning the contours of the body. I like to design body jewellery that gives the wearer another sense of self. Having placed the item on, one can transform their persona.

I translate my vision of each piece into my work, invoking a sensual and mysterious quality. I love to work with colours, from rich fiery tones to soft pale hues.

My use of the age-old Native American flat peyote stitch remains visible beneath the clusters and colours.  I appreciate the wonder and simplicity of this very beautiful ancient craft and combine this craft with my contemporary yet timeless visions, to create elegant, stylish designs.

This technique produces a mesh-like fabric of beads.  I like to think of my pieces as wearable works of art, a soft suit of armour, delicate woven web-like body adornment.

My pieces incorporate quartz crystals, a myriad of semi-precious stones, and ethically- sourced porcupine quills along with gold, glass and sterling silver beads.

My work has been seen as a "Collector's Item" for the past ten years.

In 2005 I was nominated under the category of Best Jewellery Designer at the UK Retail Jeweller Awards in London .
