About

I picked up my first pair of pliers in 2004 and have been steadily making jewelry ever since.

I'm mostly self-taught, but have received training through: The Penland School of Crafts 2007,  Graduate Jeweler and Gemologist from Gemological Institute of America 2009, New Approach School for Jewelers, and GRS Engraving.

I currently live in the Appalachian mountains outside Asheville, NC with my beloved, son, daughter, my dogs Koda and Maia, and Mr. Nuggles our cat. 

This is my Life's Work. Each piece is created with love and intention. Thanks for stopping by.  

With gratitude,

Ben
