About me
I graduated from Massachusetts College of Art with a BFA in metalsmithing. I have a lot of training with jewelry, and even more with bronze casting. Bronze casting is almost impossible to do in one's basement. Thus, we have jewelry, made mostly from copper, the closest material in the jeweler's lexicon to bronze. I love copper. I love the way it looks, and the way it moves. You'll love it, too. 
Check out my style because...
its practical, and easy, and requires less then five minutes to prepare for just about anything 
Three things I can't live without
my bike, my book, my teddybear 
When I'm not hiving...
I'm working. Starting a business will wear a person out! 

 

Ask and answer

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go?
Venice for Carnival is high on my list, if money was no object- otherwise, I go wherever I've got somebody to visit. This summer- the amazon.

 

If you could live anywhere, where would you live?
I -can- live anywhere, its the work visa that's the issue. if I could pull off EU citizenship, it seems like germans get the longest vacations...

 

Favorite recent books
My all time favorite is marco valdo, by calvino. Recently, I read the mystic masseur by V.S. Naipul (spelling?) Which was quite well written and really interesting in its treatment of dialect

 

I can't leave the house without
my bike. Or, at least, I won't get far. Thus, also tire irons, a spare tube, a 15mm wrench, a pump and a lock. This all goes in a messenger bag. Oh, and pants. I very nearly NEVER leave the house without pants.

 

My dream job
I have it. I own my own business making avant garde, afordable jewelry. In my dreams, I have an on staff bookkeeper, and an intern, but so far, so good.
