As Sophia Loren once said, "There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love."

Making jewelry is what I love to do. It engages the mind and exercises the passion for creativity that I have always cherished. When I was six years old, I started making jewelry, and by "jewelry" I mean mismatched strands of Lisa Frank colored pony beads. My mom always encouraged me and took me to my first bead store. Neither of us really knew what we were doing with the beads back then, but that didn't stop us from trying new things. Two decades later, I still love trying new things with beads and any materials I can get my hands on. While my mom is no longer physically with me, I strongly believe that she inspires all of the work I do, whether through the many colors I am drawn to or the drive I have to keep learning new techniques. I hope to share that inspiration with all those who view my shop.

I make all of my products by hand, striving to ensure the uniqueness of each piece. If you have any special requests or ideas, please do not hesitate to contact me via email at fireinhandjewelry [!at] gmail.com.
