My designs for me are a representation of personal thoughts feelings and ideas translated into ornaments that can be described as crafted treasures of my experiences. A lot of inspiration in my personal design work comes from nature and are also renditions of abstract geometric and sculptural forms.
I would describe my designs are aesthetically modern as I infuse my love for sculpted shapes and forms with jewellery designs to create exceptional pieces. I aspire originality and innovativeness to design exceptional pieces of ornamentation.
