My journey begins far away in my childhood when I heard people at a local plaza in my hometown Quito-Ecuador talking in a different language, that called my attention and made me wish I had that ability. I asked who they are and what they do and one of the tourists who understood and spoke Spanish told me they were in a vacations trip coming from USA and they were Jewelers based in California.

That day I started to dream about becoming a Jeweler and my dream came true in my late teens when I moved to USA to the State of California, I went to the only Jewelers/Gemologists School at that time named GIA.

 Later I finished my degree in Arts - jewelry design and started working in different Companies trying to gain experience, learn all about the trade, learn all tricks and secrets of this great art. I moved to Michigan and worked for one of the most prestigious Companies for few years and then moved on to open my own store, over the years, technology has advanced to an incredible level and has facilitated both learning and jewelry making, and at the same time has forced us artisans to learn and live side by side with the technological advances in the industry.

I have been teaching Jewelry making, CAD designs for over 20 years now and have won Design contests, recognitions, awards, etc.

This trade is the kind of art that requires passion, patience, knowledge and lots of love!
