I’m 42 years old and the owner and creator of Jewelry & Beyond. I began making jewelry as a hobby in 2014 — small projects, gifts for friends, and pieces I wore myself. Over the years, that hobby grew into a passionate craft: more experiments with materials, refined techniques, and a growing circle of people who appreciated my work.

In 2024 I decided to turn that passion into a business. Jewelry & Beyond is the result: a small, independent brand dedicated to thoughtfully designed pieces that blend durability with timeless style. I focus on quality materials and careful construction so each piece can be worn daily and passed on from generation to generation. My collections range from minimalist everyday essentials to statement items that elevate an outfit. I hand crafted the Jewelry by hand each time. The Beads and Stones I use are from my travels in and out of the U.S.A
