It all began back in 2007, when I traded in my excel spreadsheets for a tool box and a dream. After 4 years of schooling at the University of Southern California, 7 years as a CPA, working in public accounting and corporate finance, I quit my job, moved to New York, and started school at the Fashion Institute of Technology. At the time, I couldn't even draw a circle and had never picked up a torch. With every semester, being creative got easier. My hands started doing what my brain told it to do. In no time, I felt like I had been making jewelry my entire life. Now for the first time since I was 5, I feel like I'm living.
