Baltimore artist. Born and raised. I hold an AFA in design from CCBC Catonsville and currently a BFA candidate at Towson University. I love my city, my culture and heritage. Creating has always been a part of my life, and in 2014, I decided to as much as I could about metalsmithing. The rest is history.....
I see jewelry as a unique way to display a person's personality and believe you can tell a lot about a person by the jewelry they wear. I create fine jewelry and small sculptures from sterling silver, copper, and bronze. My work represents my culture and the things I would like to see represented. I work with a strong emphasis on urban culture, Pan-African symbolism and the colors associated with the diaspora. (Red- to symbolize the bloodshed of Blacks throughout history, Green- for Africa's land and natural resources, Yellow- for minerals and wealth, Black- for the people).
