Biography

I grew up in my Mom’s flower shop in Sun Valley, Idaho, surrounded by natural beauty that first sparked my love of art and design. For the past 20 years, I’ve called California’s Central Coast home, where I am inspired by sun-drenched afternoons at the beach and morning walks in the foggy forest.

My career began in artisan jewelry, where I spent over a decade designing and handcrafting wearable works of art. That foundation in metalsmithing and design now informs my stained glass practice, giving each piece a refined balance of structure, light, and color.

Through Brightfire Artworks, founded in 2022, I create bespoke stained glass for collectors and design-conscious clients who value originality, elegance, and artistry. Beyond stained glass, I continue to create affordable jewelry with an emphasis on lightweight, easy to wear pieces.
