I was a quiet, shy kid who often struggled to feel confident. Growing up, school could be overwhelming, and I wished for a place where I could express myself.

What helped me find my voice?

Creativity, especially making things with my hands.
 

Inspired by my mom’s oil paintings and my dad’s endless DIY projects, I tried everything from painting to pottery until I discovered jewelry making in my mid-twenties. From my first class, I was hooked.

Over the years, I opened a bead store, learned from the masters, and earned the nickname the “Jewelry Lady,” a title that still makes me smile.
 

For nearly two decades, I have been creating and teaching jewelry making. Watching kids light up when they finish something they made themselves is pure magic.
 

That is why I created the Jewelry Club: a fun, supportive space where kids can explore their creativity, try new things without fear, and build confidence in what they make.

I’m thrilled to share my love of jewelry making with your child, and see them discover just how creative, capable, and confident they can be.
 

With creativity and joy,

                                 Xo
