My designs tell compelling stories of the rich cultural heritage we have in common. Beads and unique materials – lovingly and skillfully handcrafted by artisans around the globe (and sourced through fair trade) – are intertwined to cross paths on “my Silk Road” reminding us of our deep human connections… across borders everywhere, then and now. At the core lies a human bond – far stronger than what we think divides us… the fundamental desire to be seen, appreciated, touched, heard, and loved.
