About me

I am a self taught Jewellery artist that works in any number of mediums, my favourite though, is anything combined with aluminium. My dad owned an aluminum foundry when I was young, and for some reason I've always been drawn to the metal that my dad worked with his hands. He made very different things than I do, and on a much larger scale but for some reason making jewellery with aluminum makes me feel closer to my him.

I have four degrees, in a number of different subjects but I have always been drawn to making stuff. I have so many ideas in my head, there isn't room for anything else. So I make jewellery, and a bunch of other things. I have a small boutique business in which I make body products. balms, body oil, lip balm, bath tea etc. It's called I'm the Balm.

Other then making things, my life is consumed with football, Canadian football more specifically. I absolutely love playing, organizing, watching and talking about the best game in the world, Canadian football. Go Bombers, Go Fearless.

I also etch metal and glass for use in jewellery making as well as wine glasses and beer mugs, and a small motivational graphics business where I take my mom's painting, funk them up and put some of my favourite quotes on them. Fun Fun Fun. My mom and I also recycle coffee bean bags into yoga mat bags and messenger bags.


I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba which is right smack dab in the middle of Canada, not to be confused with what people call central Canada, that really isn't very central :)

If there is something you are interested in or would like to see me make, let me know, I'd be glad to give it a try.
